Politics & Prose Really Supports Journalism

A FishbowlDC spy was at Scott McClellan‘s book signing at Politics & Prose last night (a bookstore that’s already come under fire recently for some heavy-handed practices) and tried to ask the former White House press secretary some questions following his remarks.

Said one P&P employee (paraphrasing) to our tipster: “Are you with media? There’s absolutely no questions. Not even one or two. The media shouldn’t be here. We can’t allow you to ask him anything.”

Huh. So Scott McClellan is making loads of money off a book in which he admits to deceiving the American people and failing to properly answer questions from the media…and then during his book tour for said book, he again won’t answer questions?

Redonk.

Or perhaps he’s just got an exclusive contract with Olbermann.
