Again, he's absolutely correct in acknowledging the two different models in determining unemployment numbers.
He correctly points out historical facts. What's wrong with the question?

Thank you, NCB for helping me to crystallize just how important this is. The White House Press Corp is the public's only access to the decisions our elected leaders are making on a day to day basis, in many ways a balance for us to shoot up flares if they sense anything outside of the public's interest is happening. I find it extremely offenssive that The White House Press Secretary has such little respect for our interest that he would falsify documents, identity, bold-face lie to this group of people that are suppossed to trust his information, and make a mockery of the idea of Free Press. It's bad enough this hack didn't even have the chops to pass as a journalist, but he is wasting the time of everybody in that room to make jokes and run down Democrats.
Obviously I have my issues with current administration, but I always respect the office. If they let this clown in on government time to make the equivalent of fart jokes while real journalist are trying to get information on war efforts, my tax dollars, and rising escalations with Iran it is sadly obvious the respect isn't returned.
