Transparency, Please! — Wednesday, January 28, 2009 — Facebook users can now lend their voices in support to a return of the White House Press Office releasing daily briefing transcripts by joining the site's new Group @ Transparency, Please! Obama White House should publish the Press Briefings.Excellent. Tip o' the hat to Ken Shepherd. UPDATE: 1/29/09 - Just to be clear, Andrea Wojtanowicz Dvorak started the facebook group to raise awareness of the missing Press Briefing transcripts. Good job!

Thanks for posting information about the group I started on Facebook - but please give credit where credit is due. Ken Shepard has done well to raise this issue on Newsbusters.org - but I was concerned about this issue before reading anything by Ken. I started the group myself. Please consider a correction to your post.
Andrea,
We're right there with ya, we'll make sure the post indicates its a group that you started.
The tip of the hat to Ken was intended for pointing out your facebook group via a tweet.
whitehousepresscorps.org has been on the case since the Inauguration, check our posts here and here where we raise the issue in annoyance. :-)
Thanks for your efforts, you rock!
