Cullen threatens journalists

Most of the media attention has been on the fact that Michael Cullen named the wrong TV station when he launched an attack on them yesterday.

However I think the most interesting part of this story is that the NZ Herald reports him as warning the press gallery they were at Parliament only with the permission of the Speaker.

This reads to me as a threat to journalists that if they displease the Government, then the Speaker may remove their accreditation.

Can anyone spell Muldoon?
