Christine Blasey Ford, through her attorneys, is seeking to limit press coverage of Thursday’s scheduled Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
According to emails uncovered and reported on by The Washington Times, Blasey Ford’s lawyers are negotiating specifics on media coverage with Republicans on the committee.
Michael Bromwich said in emails sent Tuesday afternoon that he was requesting access for three “robocams,” three specific wire services, photographers from the Associated Press, Reuters and one unspecified service, and a pool reporter for newspapers and magazines. In a follow-up email he specified that the robocams should be operated by “the CSPAN TV pool,” and said he also wanted space for a radio reporter.
Although press is sometimes limited because of space restrictions and the identities of some witnesses are sometimes shielded, “longtime Capitol Hill watchers struggled to think of precedent for a witness dictating terms of press coverage,” the Times reported.

Get up there and testify or go the hell. You have no right to dictate how your testimony is covered. Oh by the way, how much money are you getting for this....DOCTOR
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that when suing someone you could set the agenda for what you want in the case, i.e. witnesses, evidence, court date, extent of testimony. limited cross examination. Even to the totally naive person, this appears as a legal team of hate.
ReplyDeleteNo police report so she can say anything and not purger herself.
ReplyDeleteAre they stupid? This is yet another delaying tactic used to give time to convince a couple of senators to vote against Kavanaugh.
ReplyDeleteBS continue with no more demands from the accuser. They do not dictate the terms. Let the Public see her on any news network. That way nothing can be edited from the Public. She testifies or she don't.
ReplyDeleteHold the hearing and if she does not show hold the vote the next day! Either she has input or not! No more delay tactic demands!

If she has nothing to hide there is no reason for her to be transparent.
