WILL OBAMA'S WHITE HOUSE BE OPEN TO THE MEDIA?
President-elect Barack Obama is preparing to take office talking as though he'll throw the White House doors open and let the sunshine in. But some reporters who have been covering the Obama campaign are a little doubtful of what that means for journalists. Jennifer Psaki, a spokeswoman for the Obama transition team, says she feels the campaign made the senator "very accessible to the media." The trend, she says, will continue in an Obama White House. But her idea of openness and transparency differs dramatically from that of some reporters who covered the campaign.
