First Presser Packed:

Gibbs' First Presser As Much About Media As Obama

First Presser Packed: "New Press Secretary Trumps The Old President"
Robert Gibbs' first briefing as White House press secretary offered almost as much insight into the media as the newly installed administration.
Well before Gibbs entered, the room was filled beyond its normal capacity. An overflow of press stemmed down the aisles and into the back. Roughly 120 journalists were in attendance. A week earlier, at Bush's final press conference as president, the briefing room held approximately 40 such reporters.
"The new press secretary trumps the old president," said one bemused reporter.
"I've never seen this, not even for Bush's first press conference," offered another, before a colleague cut him off with a single word: "Impeachment."
