Trump spokeswoman Karolina Leavitt said on Tuesday that she would maintain these outlets. But she said that the administration would now allow access to other outlets, because it uses control of the White House Association (WHC), which has previously coordinated the rotation of the pool.
“For decades, a group of journalists based in DC, the White House Association Association, has long dictated what journalists have asked questions from the presidents of the United States in the most intimate spaces. Not more,” Leavitt said at the news for news.
“Moving forward, the White House Printing Pool will determine the White House Printing team,” Leavitt said, adding that he would add streaming services to the pool rotation.
Whca president Eugene Daniels said Trump’s administration did not inform the body on the eve of the move, which he said “tears because of free printing independence in the United States.”
“This suggests that the Government will choose journalists covering the president. In free country, leaders should not be able to choose their own press corpus, “Daniels said in a statement.
“But whca will never stop advocating a comprehensive approach, full transparency and the right of the US public to read, listen, listen and watch reports from the White House, delivered without fear or affection,” he added.
Asked about his decision to gather a journalist at an oval office later on Tuesday, Trump said: “Now we will call shots.”
At that same gathering, Trump also fell into Associated Press (AP) in the middle of a dispute about his policy not to use the term “American Bay ” – The new name given to the President by the Gulf of Mexico.
In mid-February, Trump’s administration banned AP journalists from the White House event for several days in a row and accused the news agency of spreading “lies” for refusing the only use of the “American Bay”.
“AP was terrible. I think they are radical left. I think they are third -class journalists,” Trump said on Tuesday.
“I know that a person is a specific young lady who works in a terrible account. She is a radical leftist, as far as I’m concerned,” he added.
On Monday, US District Judge Trevor N McFadden refused to order the White House to immediately return access to the AP presidential events, including oval Office and Air Force One, Trump regularly maintains questions and answers.
McFadden said the issue needed further research before he could make a judgment.
The ban has scheduled an additional hearing for March 30. In the meantime, the ban remains in force.
