What a disgrace.
The pool has confirmed that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson held a news conference in Riyadh that U.S. reporters were not told about.

Totally. She sits around waiting for someone to lead her around. My guess is other press learned of it and showed up. Actual reporters.
-
And its hard to learn of things when they're not announced to the US press on purpose. Tillerson just doesn't want to take tough questions.
-
I agree Tillerson is elusive. That's his right. It's the press' right to chase him down. She shouldn't whine, she should push harder.
-
No its not his "right" -- he's accountable to Americans, and like it or not that means the free US press not just his handpicked outlets.
-
Tillerson is an employee of the American people. That fact that he shut out the American press/his fellow Americans is despicable!!
-
What is shameful and despicable is that the American news media cannot report the truth, yet would rather advance false narratives.
-
Just keep telling yourself that...love the rationalization!! Well done-lol

Who cares? So the
#MSM can ask questions that have nothing to do with the visit? -
You nailed it!!
-
I'm sure the Russian state run media was allowed..we'll just wait for their update!!
-
just like we had to wait for the Russian photographers to release pics of Trump's meeting with Russians in Oval Office (._. )

Tillerson doesn't work for us. He works for Exxon, Putin, Trump & any other oligarch that doesn't believe in basic human rights
#TrumpRussia -
He suppose to work for us, stand corrected.

This is scary when a US administration feels they can skirt the press w/o consequences.
#Nixon thought he could do the same.#RussiaGate -
Because the internet doesn't exist and international news doesn't reach America.

Good for him

And like with so many things, had Obama's admin done this you'd be having kittens. Come on bro - at least TRY and not be so hypocritical.
-
No, shutting out the press would never have been acceptable.

Right on! You MSM would distort it anyway!
-
You're seriously congratulating our state department briefing/taking questions from foreigners, and leaving out US questions?
-
They blindly follow the hate. There is no reasoning with those infected with Trumpitis
-
Go back to watching Netflix
-
Not while you and your ilk disgrace this country with your ignorance and vapid disposition
-
You seem too have far more hate than I! Thank you for your service.
-
US officials are accountable to the US media & constituents, not to media of a foreign, theocratic state, altho they should have access, too
