I te Hōngongoi 2014, i whakaputaina e te Society of Professional Journalists he reta tuwhera i hainatia e ngā whakahaere 38 ki a Barack Obama, e whakahē ana i ngā kaha ki te "whakamaramatia, ki te aukati rānei" i ngā pūrongo, ahakoa ōna kupu whakaari i te tau 2008.
hei whakarato i te mārama. I whakahuahia e te reta nga tauira maha i aukatihia ai e te whakahaere nga kairipoata ki te korero tika ki nga kaimahi motuhake me te kore e whakaaetia e te upoko o to raatau tari. Ko te whakamahinga a Obama o te Ture Aroturuki i whakahehia e te kairipoata CNN a Jake Tapper. Ka whakamarama a Tapper i muri mai kaore ia i te kii ko taua whakamahinga he ki nga kaiwhakapae pono.
