After 4 Years Of Failure, White House Press Corps Does Complete 180 Under Trump

Everything was quiet because the press pool stood from the White House in the spring of 2024.

Suddenly, after completing the rush, I heard the squeal behind me as well as the crying of the girls in the female student club. The members of my friend’s news pool bothered the guests behind them.

The media attacked Jean Pierre: “It’s very long!” “I love your clothes!” “Will you join us today?”

“Should I be one of you today?” When the media laughed, Jean Pierre joked. “Should I ask for a salary increase?”

Reporters are striving to get information and walking on a delicate boundary between developing developed information sources and making friends. A few hours later, it seems to be a clear intersection of the line to physically accept the person, which is expected to be grilled on behalf of the American people.

On the second day of President Trump, almost one year after the incident, another spokeswoman walked the White House campus. From the fox news hit, the fresh Caroline Ribit has passed the media tent line called Pebber Beach. The correspondent flocked her.

But there was no hug. There is no glance. The reporter was eager to get the information and was notted time for a good time.

When Levit reached the end of the White House Drive, she did not hang a chit chat with the reporter. She went to the next obligation.

I’ve heard how the media cooperated with the Democratic government for many years. During the year or so, I saw how the media close to the president’s condition during the year or so.

Legacy media failed. And everyone knows that, especially President Trump and his team. It became clear as Leavitt shaks the briefing room and discusses plans to provide unprecedented access to independent media.

On that day, while waiting to enter an elliptical office to see Biden, the pool reporter to discuss the event of the event. One reporter told the news that adjusting the question is the best, so that only one person can shout out to the president. Conveniently, the reporter argued that they were on a television station, so they could ask questions we chose, as they were the most important.

Unfortunately, I was one of my first time as a member of the press pool, so I was worried about making waves and did not retreat. The first question proposed by the reporter was Ukraine’s assistant, and Mike Johnson’s cooperation with the president. Another reporter said that he would like to follow up in questions about the discussion between Alabama and its in-vitro fertilization (IVF).

So we headed.

What I have not regret from that day was to ignore my fellow Puller command. As soon as the president finishes his remark. I started shouting my question as the media Wrangler moved us from the room. No one was asked, but it was not abnormal between the Biden administration.

I heard that my fellow Puller was frustrated that their plans were not successful and that someone began to shout at them. There was a request to know who was lost from the plan, but I realized that I ran away in a hurry to analyze the President’s remarks for the pool report.

Similarly, a white house reporter dared to ask his colleagues to ask the president about his physical decline, then resigned and was frustrated with him whether he would be in charge of former Vice President Camara Harris. I told me.

Legacy media has no opportunity to control the story and crush a small man under the Trump administration.

Just a few hours after the presidential position, Trump sat in an elliptical office and signed the presidential order. During the signature, many reporters had the opportunity to ask questions to the president. Sometimes he answered while signing. Occasionally, he looked up at the question before giving a more detailed answer.

On the second day, the President said a new AI infrastructure trading from the Roosevelt Room. Later, he opened the floor for the question. For 29 minutes, Trump was asked about his pardon, Tactoku’s future plan, and War against Russian Ukraine. He chose the reporter he wanted to call, he silenced the reporter he did not want to hear. There was no coordination between the media, who was covered, or who had the doubt about the strongest man in the world.

This was the first time I had experienced Trump’s true press conference, but I often heard from a colleague who covered the White House before Biden’s employment.

A White House reporter once told me about their experiences that covered the Trump administration. They said that Trump always had the opportunity to ask the story, and he rarely spent a day without meeting him.

“It’s noon and noon,” another reporter told me that day.

And it’s literally day and noon. Trump took only a few hours for Biden to ask more questions than the whole week. One of Trump’s first stop after swearing was an oval office. So he signed some administrative orders when he asked 75 questions and follow -ups in 48 minutes sitting at Resolute Desk. Biden asked a total of six questions, one of which had one word answer during his first week.

Biden frequently played the media with the media, but he often only received one question, and his answer was short. At a press conference, the reporter seemed to have been selected in advance by the White House communication team. Former President will call an individual from the list, will introduce the reporter’s photos and the topics they wanted to cover -it will be placed in front of him. In the last year of his inauguration, Biden acknowledged that he was “involved in trouble.” In less than 100 days, the former President claimed that if he did not ask a question from a pre -approved list, his staff would be OLD.

“I’m sorry, but if I don’t do this in the right way, I’m going to be in trouble with the staff,” said the President in March 2021.

The media is in a vulnerable position. One White House correspondent in detail that the Press Corps widely knew the details of the story of the Biden White House, but could not report the scandal. There were occasional burnings that were interested in several situations, such as handling documents classified by the former president and involvement of foreign business transactions in foreign countries, but it seems to be rumors of potential expulsion of Jumpiere and sexual harassment. In the story, they closed their eyes in the first Lady office.

The press is sharply aware of how their actions are seen by the general public. But they are not afraid of running on the cover for themselves or for their friendly administration.

For example, under Biden, they seemed to have often tried to suppress the president’s criticism of light. Even if you say it modestly, it’s a schedule. (Related: Memorialum: Looking back on the biggest lie of KJP, her time at the White House ends)

The press usually calls a temporary “lid” in the middle of the day. This guarantees that the press can leave the White House campus and sneak up for lunch without missing the news. These are usually called “lunch lids”. However, during the Biden administration, they adopted a new title, “Branch lid.” New terms reflect the fact that it often extends from morning to late afternoon outside of business hours. From the top of 2023 to mid -July, the audience Counted A total of 39 lunch lids and 42 branch lids called by the Biden White House.

A few months later, I asked the White House about these “brunch lids” and why they had so long. I have never obtained a true answer to my question, but the officials of Biden seemed to “understand” the concept of “brunch lid” and how they were intended. So I encouraged me to talk to the White House Correspondent Association. Profit reporter. (I don’t know any reporters who need time to eat lunch.)

About a month after the conversation, the pool reporter instructed to stop using the term “brunch lid”. Because it was unofficial and did not belong to the historical explanation of the presidential position.

I don’t know if these two incidents are related, but I think that such decisions will affect the president’s awareness, his schedule, and later a large story.

The song between the media appears to have changed as the new Trump administration appeared. Since Trump took office, WHCA has been recognized by WHCA related media related media. The spokesman of the organization told the sender that the organization did not try to apply in the past because he knew that he would be rejected immediately.

“And if someone says that the activist is incorporated into the WH Press, my reply is easy. How is it different from CNN, NBC, or Washington Post? Spokesman told the sender.

The sources also confirmed that one of the American news networks, a conservative TV outlet, had refused WHCA membership until Trump took office. The network was invited only to a briefing reporter between COVID because he received a personal invitation from Trump’s spokeswoman.

It seems that the era of suppressing independent media and outlets throughout the political spectrum is over. There is no longer the staff of the White House or for several months without meeting the cabinet officials.

And there is no more questions about whether the president speaks with the media.

“Do you gaggle the president? The answer is almost always no,” said Biden officials.
