Albertville, Ala.: From your columns it sounds like network executives are treating the "reporters who cover television" like Bush treats the White House press corps. Is this new, or is distain a perennial part of the package? Lisa de Moraes: Definitely similarities, though I'd say that's a better description of cable suits than broadcast ones -- and that's the ones who will even speak to the press on the record for the transcripts during the cable days of Press Tour. Many of them won't even get up on stage or, if they do, during a show Q&A, and you ask them a question they will sometimes respond "We're not here to talk about that."
