Romney opens Jerusalem fundraiser to press
Mitt Romney is opening his high-dollar fundraiser here Monday to the news media, reversing his campaign’s earlier decision to block press access to the event. - By banning reporters from covering the event, the Romney campaign would have violated the ground rules it had previously negotiated with news organizations regarding coverage of the presumptive Republican presidential nominee’s finance events. After reporters objected and several national news outlets, including The Washington Post, reported on Saturday that the campaign was keeping its Jerusalem fundraiser closed to the press, it reversed its decision. Campaign spokesman Rick Gorka said a regular press pool would be allowed in to cover the Monday morning event, held at the King David Hotel.
