idk what the deal is. I wonder if they were just annoyed that he was interrupting their pro-Israel propaganda hour or something. Like he was supposed to ask his question once they were done giving the media their marching orders about Israel and Palestine. Hard to know with so little context.

    It's kind of a glimpse into how ridiculously controlled their press briefings are, that some guy raising his voice in the meeting results in the two hosts getting angry and leaving like they're some parents and the journalists are children. They cannot speak unless they're spoken to. She couldn't even dignify him by actually responding to him or reiterating the rules or anything. Now imagine you're a journalist from a non-US aligned media outlet and they don't bother calling on you.
