Inside the White House Press Corps: Chip Reid

As a matter of personal interest, I asked Chip if he was a Trekkie or a Star Wars fan. I expected, perhaps, a debate on the relative merits of the Corbomite Maneuver vis a´ vis the Kessel Run. Not exactly.

That’s right, folks, Chip Reid is a fan of the lamest of sci-fi subgenres, the laser-free, we-mean-you-no-harm ET film. You heard it here first. He does deserve a measure of credit for being able to do a decent-for-a-non-Trekkie “Spock hand.”

Thanks Tommy – another interesting interview. I imagine that is a hectic stressful job, but also exciting.

It is interesting to hear Chip talk about trying to get answers for the people, but Gibbs doesn’t cooperate because he has to protect the president. I guess it is obvious, but seeing it in black and white like that… He can’t be honest because he has to protect the president. huh.

DO YOU THINK IF I ASKED ROBERT OR BILL THAT PROTECTING THE PRES WOULD COME FIRST?
I would like to hear Gibbs answer that. Good question, Tommy.
