Hasn't is not correct. The Obama Administration was notoriously terrible towards the press. The below from an article published today: https://news.grabien.com/story-why-it-will-be-hard-trump-sur...
Obama Admin on Fox News: “We’re going to treat them the way we would treat an opponent,” said Anita Dunn, the White House communications director, in a telephone interview on Sunday. “As they are undertaking a war against Barack Obama and the White House, we don’t need to pretend that this is the way that legitimate news organizations behave.” http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/12/business/media/12fox.html
The [Obama] administration sought to deny Fox News' participation in executive branch news-making events -- which only failed after other networks admirably refused to participate if Fox News were excluded. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/23/white-houses-fox-ne...
James Rosen, reported accurate information about North Korea leaked by a member of the Obama State Department, Eric Holder ordered his movements to be tracked, his phone records seized, and went "judge shopping" until he found one willing to grant such a warrant without telling Rosen himself. Holder even told Google to not notify Rosen that the government was monitoring his email. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/a-rare-peek-into-a-just...

The New York Times's James Risen was targeted for almost the entirety of Obama's two terms. His crime? Reporting accurate information the Obama Administration didn't want reported. "Along the way, we found out that the government had spied on virtually every aspect of James Risen’s digital life from phone calls, to emails, to credit card statements, bank records and more," https://freedom.press/news-advocacy/the-james-risen-case-and...
The Associated Press experienced similar surveillance. For two months, the Department of Justice tracked 20 AP reporters' calls, ostensibly over their reporting into a Libyan terrorist's failed plot. Why was reporting on a failed plot so threatening? The AP said it was because the administration wanted to announce the news itself. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/some-question-whethe...
Just pointing out that 'Hasn't' is not correct. Carry on...
