Mike Pompeo is brilliant man and like others has had his share of stupid reporters asking knowing all questions in a belligerent way. Not knowing about past meetings together if this encounter and his response was justified or not.

LTC Lee Bouchard - It is never justified from a public official addressing the public. They work for all of us. The ones that agree, the ones that disagree, the reporters, all of us. If he can't take the pressures of the job, he probably doesn't belong there.

SPC Kevin Ford - He is allowed to be blunt and to the point. It took place in a private room and not in public. She made it public. A true lady would not. Pressure? Try being a student at West point. I taught there for a couple of years. He graduated where in his class? Look at his background and past assignment's. I'm not sure what he and I have in common except a couple of things.
1. I do not like the press. 2. I do not tolerate stupidity and incompetence. 3. Will not stand for attacks without a rebuttal and lastly, tell the truth and never lie to anyone about anything.
Things taught at West point. Likely not where she went to school. Reporters and journalists are without honor and never held accountable for anything said or printed.
Right up to the same level as members of Congress.

LTC Lee Bouchard - No, that's not how adults should speak to each other. He behaved poorly and she was right to call him out on it.
As far as your third point, ummm, really? Lying is kind of the trademark of the Trump administration, including Pompeo.

I don't recall a single administration who had a love affair with the media. Reporters are out there to sell hype and sensation. Mostly not well informed. They attack without tact.
Often rude and make their best effort to embarrass the other person in public. You can argue there are some good reporters and there are. Too bad they are outnumbered by the dumpster divers looking for the news.
