Rahm says he's been picking up on some criticism lately among some of the journalists who followed my campaign and now feel they're getting a bit frozen out. Basically, they want more access and they feel that my team has shut down on communication. Well, we have shut down, but that's to be expected in a time of transition. For one thing, I'm not the president, and even though the current occupant of the White House seems to be hiding under his desk and waiting for the scary movie to end, it's still considered bad form for me to start doing too much in public right now.
That said, I also must add that the truth is, I really don't like most of the reporters I've met. Nothing personal, but they're just not my type of people. And though, let's face it, they were all pretty nice to me during the campaign, I'm also pretty sure they're going to turn on me. Wait and see. It's how they do things. There will be a backlash. The only question is when. So forgive me, but yeah, I'm a little bit wary.
