Reporter Believes IRS Pressure Result of WH Interview

Larry Connors
President Barack Obama called the targeting of conservatives by the IRS “outrageous” at Monday’s joint press conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron, and vowed to “make sure that we find out exactly what happened on this,” according to The New York Times. But if the allegations of a St. Louis reporter have any merit at all, he should begin his investigation at the White House rather than the Treasury Building.

According to bizpac.com, KMOV Channel 4 reporter Larry Conners conducted a person-to-person interview with the president in Washington during his re-election campaign. Especially noteworthy was Conners’ question concerning the first family’s never-ending taxpayer funded vacations.

“The President’s face clearly showed his anger; afterwards, his staff which had been so polite … suddenly went cold,” Conners wrote on Facebook. “What I don’t like to even consider … is that because of the Obama interview … the IRS put a target on me. Can I prove it? At this time, no. But it is a fact that since the April 2012 interview … the IRS has been pressuring me.”

Later Tuesday during a TV broadcast, Conners talked about the Facebook posting.
