More good news
The Washington Times observes that Press corps doyenne gets no notice:
A long-running Washington tradition apparently ended last night when, for the first time in memory, the doyenne of the White House press corps was not called on in a presidential press conference.

Syndicated columnist Helen Thomas, who has covered every president since John F. Kennedy, was relegated to the third row in last night's East Room event and - if the memory of press corps veterans is accurate - received her first presidential snub.
And it's long overdue. This whining apologist for terrorists of all stripes is a perpetual disgrace in the Ari Fleischer daily briefings. We can expect her to really be on her broom in today's briefing.
