15 Journalists Have Joined Obama Administration
..........................................................................................................
Breitbart ^ | 9/13/13 | John Nolte


Time managing editor Rick Stengel's decision to join the Obama administration is just the latest example of a new trend among mainstream media journalists who are making it official by officially joining the Obama administration.

The reason they are taking jobs with the Administration is because they see their jobs with the media going away. Time magazine is a good example of a publication on its’ deathbed (like Newsweek).

Obviously, the outlook for their brand of journalism is not up and to the right.
