The system of independent reporters going to partisan press conferences really muddles the independence of reporters and gives a false air of legitimacy to the claims of spokesmen.
Things should be claimed publicly and then reporters should report, fact check, and reveal inconsistencies.
But next we need a global forum that no politician could credibly not see so we can force questions and make it politically damaging not to answer.
Then they will want their old media arraignments back. :)
