And "approved" list.

[ExpressLane]

During a joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid on Thursday morning in Jerusalem, President Biden said he was "given a list" of reporters to take questions from.

The president made the gaffe after taking one question from an Israeli reporter. Afterwards, he was prompted to call on more reporters, when he said, "Um, sure. Uh, I was given a list here,"

before reading off the name of Reuters reporter Steve Holland.
As the conference went on, Biden repeatedly looked down at his list to call on reporters. "The next person to ask us a question, I guess, is Nadia [Bilbassy]," he said referring to a reporter for an Arabic news outlet.

The gaffe came one day after Biden misspoke while referring to the Holocaust, shortly after landing in Israel to begin the first leg of his Middle East trip.

Dementia Joe is so cognitively impaired that he can't even select random reporters for questions. He is given a list of reporters that he is allowed to choose. What a national embarrassment.

When traveling abroad, no American president, Democrat or Republican, should unwittingly give a platform for reporters from Kremlin, Chinese state, Iranian, or other state controlled state media.

Our presidents are obligated to answer to the free press of democratic nations. Reporters from the international press corps should be definitely be culled for bad faith actors

That's how he only gets questions like "what's your favorite ice cream flavor?" He is coddled like a retarded baby by the lame stream media.

You're promoting American exceptionalism. The US media is nothing more than war machine propaganda, so the world deserves opposing views and demands answers to tough questions. Biden is unfit for the job.

He had a list of American reporters that he could only call on.

Thus reinforcing The Empires argument that the West is hopelessly rotted out, and must be replaced, by the East.

Normally, the leaders call on two reporters from each of their respective countries, ostensibly to ask both of them about their just-concluded meeting. In reality, reporters often seize the opportunity to quiz the president about the pressing news of the day, which often has nothing to do with the subject at hand.

Trump took this to a whole new level by calling out popular journalists and calling them Fake News and ignoring their questions. All presidents have a short list of shit-stirrers, antagonists, and flame throwers to avoid at all costs.

Biden is an honest person and he will reveal to everyone that he has such lists.

Obama ignored his lists and took questions from anyone and everyone- AND ANSWERED EVERY QUESTION EVER ASKED OF HIM. But he was an exception to the rule!

Try not to be such a smartass. The Russian and Chinese media are answerable to THE STATE.

If a Russian media outlet called the Ukraine War a war, what do you think would happen to the editors?

American corporate media almost always now push WOKE Propaganda over the truth....there is no longer much of a difference.
