(Crain’s) — The best-funded political campaign in American history says news organizations will have to pay—in some cases almost $2,000 each—if they want to cover Barack Obama’s election-night celebration in Chicago.
A memo sent to news organizations on Tuesday by the Obama campaign says credentials will cost $715 to $1,815, depending on whether electrical and phone lines are needed and whether an indoor or outdoor seat is requested for the event, which is expected to be held outside the evening of Nov. 4 in Grant Park.

Thats the logic. Whether its a campaign donation, fee for service. or an Obamination "donation" really doesn't matter anymore.
You are looking into the mirror of the Nationalist/Socialist witch, and seeing exactly how our nation will be run.
And the media must PAY to exercise its skewed for Obama 1st amendment rights!
Good. I hope Obama makes them pay MILLIONS.
And when he loses I hope they get to broadcast Obama's "Kenya Template" riots.
Our nation has ALREADY had enough of Obama.
Watch some in the MSM turn on Obama these last few weeks of the campaign. They suddenly will "GET" what Obama really is.
A NArcisstic petty tyrant who means to traduce all of Freedom loving AMerica, and reduce us to living in a Chicago like burrow with nothing but hope and change to chew on, eat, and work at, and inflate the body of a fascist Republic with all in "lock step."
Thats ALL Obama knows how to do. Just examine what happened in Kenya, and at the Dem convention, and Acorn. You will get the picture if you have not already.
Incredible.
Some small stations should request he spread the wealth around have nbc, cbs, cnn, msnbc, abc and fox pay their fees.
Looks like Biden finally realized that he's running with a pack of dogs...
Witness The second coming for less than $1,000 WOW
“He’ll have Stormtroopers with real power, once they have enough funding.”
Really?
I suppose he’ll send a brigade of New York City metrosexuals down south to hit Texans over the heads with their purses. I kinda hope that’s on pay-per-view.
Or maybe we’ll see little yellow school buses with hip-hop rappers disembarking in a rural hunting communities, going door to door asking heavily armed combat veterans to turn over their money and guns.
IF he is elected, I can’t wait to see the auction for the White House Press Corps seats, with the highest bidders winning the front row.
Joe finally has remembered the face of his father.
And Joe is the only one who can try the fast draw. No one else will be able to if Obama wins. The Dems will have no "Roland the Gunslinger" for America.
Man, Joe is popping his hair plugs these days!
Great graphic. It likely has a prescience about it.
THAT’S Obama’s house? Wow, he really got ripped off.
You mean the White House press Corps will not be seated by seniority?
Helen Thomas will sit at the back?
Hell I would donate to make THAT happen.
“How, again, does this fit in with the share-the-wealth stuff?”
Easy. He will share the wealth of people who work and save with people who do neither.
If he needs to charge the media to see his losing party, then perhaps his campaign isn’t quite as wealthy as it has been represented. Maybe the foreign contributor are starting to fall back...
Does the media get a refund if he loses?
Unfortunately, the media will pay the fee and continue to follow Obama around like a puppy dog.
LOL! I was thinking the same thing.
