That's liable to tick the press off.

I've seen this movie before...



It doesn't turn out well for the WH.

BTW. If I find out Zero was also spying on the dead Jack Anderson and the boring Morton Kondracke, it will just show that he is lazy and is just cheating off of Nixon's enemies list. He should come up with his own for crying out loud.

White House Propaganda Minister Jay Carney Asked About DOJ Seizing AP Phone Records: “No Comment” – Update: Releases Statement Saying WH Had “No Knowledge” Of DOJ Seizing AP Records…



Carney must be on suicide watch.

Via TPM:

White House press secretary Jay Carney on Monday had no comment when asked about an Associated Press report revealing that the Department of Justice secretly obtained two months of telephone records from reporters and editors employed at the international news agency in April and May of 2012.

In New York City for a fundraiser headlining President Barack Obama, Carney referred reporters’ questions to the Department of Justice, according to a pool report.

Update: Someone at the DOJ is going under the bus.

(Politico) — The White House has “no knowledge” of the Justice Department’s efforts to obtain phone records of Associated Press reporters and editors, press secretary Jay Carney said Monday.

“Other than press reports, we have no knowledge of any attempt by the Justice Department to seek phone records of the AP,” he said in a statement.

“We are not involved in decisions made in connection with criminal investigations, as those matters are handled independently by the Justice Department,” he added. “Any questions about an ongoing criminal investigation should be directed to the Department of Justice.”

A Justice Department spokeswoman referred a request for comment to Bill Miller, spokesman for the U.S. Attorney’s office in Washington, which is conducting a probe on the leaking of information about Syria to the AP.

Carney really doesn't look well.
