An interest in details
The White House press-pool has been operating for a long time. The pool consists of reporters who forward articles to other reporters, who incorporate them into news articles. It so happens that the actual forwarding is done by the Administration and sometimes the reports get censored. It's amazing the trivial articles that are censored. Some examples:
- a White House intern had fainted at the end of the daily press briefing
- the details of a series of private presidential receptions for campaign donors during inauguration week
- Michelle Obama working out at a hotel gym during a presidential trip to Asia
Do the people doing the censoring have anything else to do?
