He agrees, just not in public.

He'd tell her. "You just got caught. You should have been more careful."

Aaarrrghhh.......Was that necessary? I’m declaring an Internet law that all Helen Thomas photos must have the face pixelated.

Actually she want’s an apology from the TRUMAN White House. He didn’t call on her first in a 1949 presser.
