White House press corps push for continued access

Jeff Mason, president of the White House Correspondents' Association, details meeting with incoming White House press secretary Sean Spicer

[lolo]

Hahaha I hope he moves all their asses out. It's their OWN fault.

[stevenmorris]

Out! Out! Out! Leave with Barry. Your party's over.

[jayspades]

The press has treated every president the same? What kinda world is this lady living in?

[joseesparza]

The press staff can be moved to the larger venue. The President doesn't need to be readily accessible to the MSN.

[lloydpowell]

All they have to do is start reporting the news instead of creating news.

[TammyAZBear]

yes moving not kicking out... make room for real news bigger space... good bye MSM

[ZAZMOTOR]

DOn't like new rules-you are fired!

[jamesmooney]

Who needs a press corp, when Trump can Tweet?

[jfphotography]

That is why I got rid of my cable TV service, nothing but brainless nonsense all day long, you don't need any of that garbage.

[bruanhardrada]

So... the MSM doesn't want to have a 5 minute walk or lose the prestige of having a desk in the actual whitehouse.

[Matt-iysi]

Apparently the press hasn't heard of the telephone, they should look into that, great invention

[carolgardella]

These press people want what they want when they want it.

[fourninesfine]

They only need 6 seats, one for each corporation that owns every "news" outlet in America.

[williammanning]

Ha well you guys better get used to it the press should be more responsible and not a private club of elites

[silverbug]

But they have not done their job responsibly.

[mexcanfun]

I hope Trump drains the whole swamp, even the janitors should be changed.

[imtryingtogetthere]

Sounds like a  good plan set up a separate office outside the WH more access to all media. Set office hours so that the press Sec can travel back and forth. Harder to twist the message when a full room hears the conference. Not just the like minded pool. Its harder to spin when info isn't whispered in the back room.

[jimc]

These reporters want to keep their elitist status amongst journalists which would be deluded if many more reporters are allowed

[swm]

There are what, 5 or 7 media owners? let them choose the 5 legacy news outlets to continue in the WH. BANG, 44 seats open to ONLINE media! Now sit back and watch the legacy media claw and tear at each other for those 5 seats ;-)

[Aikitrad]

UK - I hope that the seating arrangements will be changed, with CNN and others like them will now be seated at the back, and Briebart News at the front with Alex Jones for company.
