WOODWARD ISN’T ALONE: FORMER CLINTON AIDE (AND OBAMA SUPPORTER) CLAIMS WHITE HOUSE THREATENED OVER HIS ARTICLES, TOO

Journalist Bob Woodward’s war with the White House has been surprising to say the least. But now, just one day after the scandal broke, another person is coming forward with claims that an Obama administration official also issued threats over his editorial work.

Lanny Davis, formerly special counsel to President Bill Clinton, announced in a radio interview with WMAL this morning, that his critical articles led to a warning that was eerily similar to the one given to Woodward. This is particularly surprising, because Davis is apparently a supporter of President Barack Obama.

According to the former Clinton administration official, a column he wrote for The Washington Times attracted the administration’s attention and led to a threatening phone call with his former editor, John Solomon.

Grow a backbone. "oooo he's picking on me". Show the communication trail, then if the admin does take punative action, you REPORT ON THAT!! Same for Woodward. If you received threatening language via email, be man enough to put the email out there and report further about the strong arming. Don't just go on tv and whine about it with one or two sentences without documentation
