Fox News fought its way into a press event with "pay czar" Kenneth Feinberg after the White House attempted to block access for the right-leaning cable network. The bureau chiefs of the five networks invited to the series of interviews refused to participate if Fox News was excluded from the interview. The move was a change of pace for the networks, which tend to give Fox News the cold shoulder. “I’m really cheered by the other members saying ‘No, if Fox can’t be part of it, we won’t be part of it,” said David Zurawik, a typically anti-Fox TV critic. "What it's really about to me is the Executive Branch of the government trying to tell the press how it should behave. I mean, this democracy—we know this—only works with a free and unfettered press to provide information.”
