What was FEMA thinking when they pulled this stunt?
I think some heads are gonna roll over this stunt.
Quote:It looked like any other Washington press briefing, with a public affairs official walking up to a podium, introducing a government official and kicking off a press conference.
But what happened next raised the ire of the news media and ticked off Bush administration officials.

Quote:The event went smoothly. That is, until the news media discovered that the press conference wasn't exactly a press conference at all.
Unlike most press briefings, this one was missing a key component: members of the press.

Quote:No reporters? No problem for FEMA. The agency filled the press room with its own public affairs personnel who asked questions.
I think that whoever thought up this little stunt will be looking for a new job, real soon.
