Who's Apologizing Now? Tony Snow, the new White House Press Secty, who made a mess of his gaggle today.
"Ending his first week on the job on a chaotic note, White Hosue Press Secretary Tony Snow on Friday conducted his first informal "press gaggle" this morning, but had to admit when it went awry, "This is just a mess."It followed two days of Snow counter-attacks on press coverage of the administration. After complaining earlier in the week about articles in The New York Times, USA Today and on CBS News, he added the Associated Press and Washington Post to the hit list on Thurday. Snow has not scheduled a formal press briefing until Monday but attempted the more informal morning "gaggle" today. After scheduling it for 9:00, he switched it to 9:30 -- then began at 9:15, causing protests. "Well, I apologize," Snow said. "That's just flat my fault."
