Nothing here to see.....stick to the facts from ABC....

Ben Shapiro
In the White House’s latest efforts at transparency, the administration announced to reporters that it would brief reporters on the latest shocking developments about the Benghazi situation … behind closed doors. Politico reports that the meeting started at approximately 12:45 PM ET, and that it moved the normal press briefing to 1:45 PM ET. Jay Carney, White House press secretary, did not comment on whether the meeting took place.



Politico reports:


The off-the-record session was announced to reporters in the wake of an ABC News report showing that White House and State Dept. officials were involved in revising the now-discredited CIA talking points about the attack on Benghazi.


The administration routinely exerts pressure on reporters it feels are not kind enough in their coverage. Reporters like Cheryl Attkisson of CBS News have felt the hand of their bosses for “wading dangerously close to advocacy” with regard to Benghazi. No doubt this “off-the-record” meeting was designed to get all the president’s horses and all the president’s men to put the Benghazi humpty dumpty together again.
UPDATE: Reporters not invited to the off-the-record briefing are reportedly incredibly unhappy about it:

Speaking of MSM feeding on their own....see DOJ been snooping on AP reporters phones?

Got a feeling the Obama MSM fairytale just went real sour.
 
You might be right. I doubt even HuffPo and MSLSD won't be able to find much of a justification for violating the 1st, 4th and 5th all at the same time.

All those who crucified the NewsCorp wiretaps need to hold Holder and Obama to the same standards here.
