For a second straight day, Sarah Sanders refuses to explain why she misled the public last year when the WH lied about whether Trump dictated statement about Trump Tower story. "I'm not going to get into a back-and-forth with you on that, I'll refer you to the outside counsel."

Pressed further to explain if her statement about Trump's involvement last year was accurate, Sanders say she tries to tell the press the truth. "I think you all know I'm an honest person." She doesn't explain why she discussed it last year -- but can't discuss now

What happened to the American media? Twenty years ago she would have been called a liar to her face and mediahouses would band together and apply pressure until this White House relented.

What happened to the backbone the American media had?
They are afraid of losing access in a time when the newspaper is dying

The media hasn't change but the people representing the government have

That was a serious miscalculation on their part.
Trump wants all the attention. If he had banned all media but fox and breibart from the White House, he would not have been able to stand it. Then the media would have been in a good position to negoatiate terms of engagement.

People keep operating out of fear instead of standing up to his bully tactics.

The press usually stands in solidarity when the White House tries to restrict access anyway. They did it with Obama. American media dropped the ball.
