You Can’t See These, They’re Publicity Photos!

Posted on May 5, 2009 by sammy

James Taranto has this item up:

“The $328,835 snapshots of an Air Force One backup plane buzzing lower Manhattan last week will not be shown to the public, the White House said yesterday,” reports the New York Post:

“We have no plans to release them,” an aide to President Obama told The Post, refusing to comment further.The sole purpose of the secret photo-op, which sent thousands of New Yorkers running for cover, was to take new publicity shots of the presidential jet over the city.
“The photos . . . are classified–that’s ridiculous,” Councilman Peter Vallone Jr., said.
The photos have not technically been “classified,” a White House aide said, but they are being kept from public view.

Apparently the Obama administration’s policy is to release photos only when doing so might pose a danger to national security.

You can’t make this stuff up.
