A $357,000 Photo - White House Press Briefing by Robert Gibbs 5/8/09
— Friday, May 08, 2009 —
 Q Robert, will your office release the photo and report about the mock Air Force One flyover today or tomorrow?
MR. GIBBS: Today.
Q Can you tell us when or under what circumstances?
MR. GIBBS: It will be sometime later this afternoon. I think the final stuff is on my desk to review when I get back and we'll release the report, the photo --
Q A photo.
MR. GIBBS: Yes.
Q How would you suggest the American people interpret the handling of this in relationship to the administration's commitment to transparency?
MR. GIBBS: I'd suggest they'll be able to read the report, which the President instructed the deputy chief of staff to undertake. We'll have -- without getting into some of what's in there, I think you'll also have -- I don't think this is the only look into this incident that's taking place.
Q Secretary Gates had his own.
MR. GIBBS: Right. The President has also, without getting into some of the recommendations -- and I've got to finish reading all this -- looking into some of the breakdowns that allowed something like this to happen. And the President instructed the staff to ensure that it doesn't happen again, and those are the steps that we're taking.
