USA Today, News Tribune Won't Publish White House Photos

USA Today and the Tacoma News Tribune are refusing to publish White House handout photos in protest of restrictions on press access. The decision comes after 38 news outlets protested White House limits that often prevent journalists from taking photos of President Obama in a letter. Reporters raised the issue again in a recent press briefing, arguing that independent photographers play a different role from White House photographers. The clash between the media and the Administration over the issue has continued to escalate.
