Why is Chris Lee running from the press?

A reporter from WNYMedia.net attempted to get a video interview with Chris Lee, and here is the result.

Once again, Nick Langworthy, running interference. Previously, Langworthy wouldn't let The Batavian do a video interview with Lee.

We didn't push the issue then, but the pattern that is emerging of Lee's unwillingness to be forthright and open with the public is disturbing.

Note: I'm not anti-Chris Lee, not by a long shot.  But there's no excuse for public officials for hiding from the press, or picking and choosing which press they will talk with. Doing so is fundamentally anti-First Amendment. It robs people of their right to make informed decisions.

UPDATE: Here's the Buffalo News coverage of yesterday's WBEN debate.
