Heh. Apparently Fox News host Dana Perino didn’t get the memo to “real journalists” that dreamy President Boyfriend is a “sex symbol” with “swag.” Man-crush city, baby!

@DanaPerino Man crush? I just gagged a little.

@DanaPerino They are hoping for an invite to one of the WH's rock star parties.

@DanaPerino That's because according to pillars of journalistic integrity like @hardball_chris Matthews, he's officially dreamy.

Don’t you dare talk about the Palace Guard that way, says Politico’s Jonathan Martin.

@kborman @DanaPerino are u following the same press corps?

Also, Faux Newzzzzzz!

@kborman @DanaPerino the idea that the wh press corps has a "man crush" is silly and just chum for fox viewers

Who’s silly?

@jmartpolitico @DanaPerino I always find it amusing how reporters call for complete accountability of electeds but balk at any criticism

@jmartpolitico Dana’s orig tweet didn't specify wh presscorps. I think it’s a fair critique – but maybe I’m distracted by all the chum. 🙂
