Bob Woodward: White House Threatened Me On Sequester Reporting

Bob Woodward: White House Threatened Me On Sequester Reporting - Business Insider:

"Bob Woodward said this evening on CNN that a 'very senior person' at the White House warned him in an email that he would 'regret doing this,' the same day he has continued to slam President Barack Obama over the looming forced cuts known as the sequester.

CNN host Wolf Blitzer said that the network invited a White House official to debate Woodward on-air, but the White House declined.

'It makes me very uncomfortable to have the White House telling reporters, 'You're going to regret doing something that you believe in,'' Woodward said."

Only a reporter of Woodward's stature in the liberal media would get away with this. Sad to say the pattern of abuse of our liberties seems to be escalating under Obama.
