Obama announces a gun task force with a genuine mandate, gets serious, and the White House press corps goes fiscal cliff. Nice work.

White House reporters forget to ask questions about gun control

12/19/2012

So, this morning, when he wasn't fending off pint-size Spider-Men, President Obama held a press conference on a new gun-policy taskforce he's formed that will be headed by Vice President Joe Biden. After announcing the plan, he opened it up to questions from the White House press corps, who immediately succeeded in pissing off seemingly everyone on Twitter for starting off by asking four questions about the fiscal cliff instead of gun control. Media-watchers weren't happy, and a sarcastic #DCPressQuestions hashtag was soon spawned. @Jackbrubaker tweeted, "Mr. President, what do you think about last night's "The Voice" finale? #DCPressQuestions." The conference eventually shifted into gun-control gear.  [Source]
