White House Remains Dead Silent on Blunt Question Posed by 'From The G-Man'

The Office of the President and the White House Press Office were contacted on April 3 and asked why neither had issued a statement following the death of anti-Apartheid activist and icon Winnie Mandela. 

Incidentally, the White House Press Office issued a statement in the wake of Nelson Mandela's passing. 

Additionally, as people from across the country reflected on the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the offices have not issued statements regarding one of the most tragic events in American history. 

One can only wonder why they chose to remain silent, especially when so many Americans, of all nationalities, were grieving Ms. Mandela's loss and honoring Dr. King's courage.
