CNN must be in the front row
Both CNN and Fox News were fighting to get a seat in the front row of the new White House press briefing room, and CNN has won.
The White House Correspondents Association decided to give the front row seat to CNN "based on CNN's 27 years of covering The White House, as well as the resources it brings to the in-town and travel pool, and its daily prescence at the briefings."
CNN wasn't the only winner. Veteran journalist Helen Thomas, who was knocked back to the second row to make way for the cable news outlets recently, will get back her front row seat. The association has decided to honor a commitment they made to Thomas years ago. She has been covering The White House since the early 60s.
The new White House briefing room will be ready in June. (And if anyone isn't sure what that headline means, I'm referring to an old commercial with Bob Uecker.)

The Daily Show: June 27, 2006
"A Times To Kill": The government's currently really pissed off at The New York Times for disclosing information about their plans to look through financial records of suspected terrorists. Jon said that, for once, the government's plan sounds somewhat reasonable, but, ironically enough, they don't want anyone to know about it? Press Secretary Tony Snow read a few highlights from the Times, getting all 9/11 up in the nation's grill. The way Snow handled it was very strange, though. "This administration is THIS close to "yadda yadda"-ing 9/11!"TV Squad Hot Topics
