By now a lot of people have seen this
Americablog post about Fox News reporter Brian Wilson making an ass of himself at the Democrats' Tuesday press conference. C-Span ran the conference earlier tonight, and you could clearly hear Wilson shouting inane questions and interrupting other (read: grown-up) reporters.
Americablog now has a video clip, and the Washington Post now has a story about the conference.
After several seconds, a booming voice cut through the noise. It belonged to Brian Wilson, a Fox News correspondent who was standing in the middle of the crowd.

Dean didn't respond and Reid talked about having a "positive agenda."
Wilson was so insistent that at one point, Durbin asked, "Does he run the press conference?" After Reid took the one question of the morning that was not about Dean (it was about Iraq) there were a host of disjointed and semi-decipherable follow-ups (none of which was about Iraq).
Someone asked whether Dean would "change his ways," or if he planned to be "less confrontational in the future" or whether he "regrets" anything he has said. An aide to Reid announced that the photo op was over.
"We'll decide when we're ready," Wilson said.
This is really just outrageous.
