Press barred from Gore's RSA speech
A not so subtle reminder in the Working Press Room on Friday morning.
(Credit: Robert Vamosi / CNET Networks)Fortunately, this year I was registered as a speaker at RSA 2008, so I didn't have my usual press pass (although the nice guardians at the press room door certainly didn't stop me from going inside).
Since individual attendees at RSA are allowed to blog and to take photographs at the conference, I feel I was within my rights to do so.
After hearing Gore's speech (which is very similiar to the talk he gave at TED and can be viewed in its entirety online), I'm unclear why Gore would want to bar the very people who can best get his message out. Yes, I am sympathetic to Gore's central message. And I understand there are those who do not agree with his point of view (as evidenced by the three protesters). But since nothing new was added here, why all the secrecy?
Or was it all a media stunt?

And not some man's message.

It reminds me of Apple. Great products, but you are only allowed to use them as the company wants it. No wonders that Al Gore sits on Apple's board.
Will we ever going to sign an EULA everytime we want to watch Gore's presentation?
that was true of almost all press. Why not. They are trained by
the journalistic schools to not think but to be lemmings to the
liberal message no matter what it is. If they sun rises in the
West that is fact. Man is the cause of so-called global warming
that is fact. Man is cause of global cooling that is fact. Millions
of poor in America that is fact. Too bad they have no brains.
Those who do can. Those who can't teach. Those who can do
neither or liberal journalists.
Check out who owns and controls the majority of the media.
Then ask yourself why Clinton got slammed for everything, even minor crap and the majority of the mainstream press has Given our wanna be dictator Bush nearly a free ride for 7 years.
That damn liberal media!
Look, I'm all for conservation and finding alternative energy sources. I just don't think that Gore is the guy that should be the poster boy of ecology everyone (including himself) makes him out to be.
Thanks for the laugh!
thug, tying to get people to buy fraudulent carbon off sets from his company that conveniently never discloses his massive confict of interest. Al gore gobal warming campaign is going to go down in history as one of the greatest pseudo scientific frauds in modern history along with mesmerism, phrenology and Adolf Hitler's theorys on racial selection all tied for first place. He's a dupe, a buffoon and a moron on a good day and on a bad day he's a shill for the carbon off sets that his investment company selling. He's worried people are catching on. So he controling his press access to "friend fellow traveler tree hugging media types and is engaging in supression of any opposing ideas,with a campaign that Ernest Rohm and Heinrich Himmler blush with it audacity and masterful suppression of sensible opposing view points. Thats why no media at the rsa, all resonable questions are heresy and need to be crush by Gore's environmental green shirt movement.
