I read an article this morning stating that Dana Perino had said that Barack Obama will probably have an eight month honeymoon with the press. She also implied that at the first sign of trouble that they will turn on him.  For those who don’t know Dana Perino is President Bush’s press secretary. She has had a tough job because most Americans do not like President Bush so she gets a lot of questions about him. I think that it would be hard to be President Bush’s press secretary because the press can get very nasty and write nasty things about you. You are basically the spokesperson of a very unpopular person. I think President Elect Barack Obama wants an open dialogue with the press to show that he is honest and genuine. I mean if you acts secretive and closed off then people will think that you have something to hide and they will not trust you at all. I think that the Obama administration will have a good working relationship with the press if they keep the press informed.
