So far, it has been a challenging year for the mainstream press, thanks to the second-term Trump government, which did not play games and made it clear that the partisan cups who were tried by the WH press corps during its first term are also tolerated this time.
We have seen this inadequate, including the decision long after Trump was inaugurated, made it possible for more up-to-date media faces in the press conference room and closer to the front, including social media influencers and other alternative news sources such as B. Podcasters and the like.
Another way, like the Associated Press, was to utilize “Gulf of America” ​​and the documented bias of the AP in the left terminology, which you utilize both in your style book and in your reporting.

And on Tuesday, as we reported, the Trump White House has another “standard” of another media able to fully decide the decades of strangling the correspondents of the White House, which media should be included in the press pool and who asked questions may from administrative officials to the president:
BOOM: Karoline Leavitt announces that the press pool is now determined by the White House, not by the WHCA

Of course, this left the members of the MSM in full meltdown mode, with the Peter Baker of the New York Times even going so far that this brings Trump to Putin Territory:
After serving as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin’s reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over his own press pool and ensured that only compliant journalists were given access.

Perhaps even more ridiculous, Baker said that what he sees as a “independent journalism” will continue despite this decision:
It is crucial to note: None of this will prevent professional news agencies from reporting to this president on the same complete, fair, demanding and unshakable way that we always have. The government’s efforts to punish unfavorable organizations will not hire independent journalism.

Baker lost others to share their unvarnished thoughts about the version of “Independent Journalism” of the MSM during the bidges:
The WHCA willingly attended the Biden Administration, in which reporters submit their questions in advance so that they could formulate an answer for a senile president. The idea that you play the role of “strong independent press” is ridiculous. It is beyond the parody. …

The bid operation did not have to take over because the press was already compliant. It is simple to say these shit if your entire team acts as a water carrier for the Democrats, ie in advance. Distraction of bidges competence; etc. etc. etc. https://t.co/suzwo4cljv

I am ancient enough to remember when the White House revoked 442 reporters press release

Let us not forget how many Beltway reporters were ready and eager, under Trump 45 the Russia/Trump Collusion Hoax among other democratic/media injured jokes, which Trump should reduce the crime of Hillary Clinton’s defeat in 2016.
The MSM has compact memories conveniently, but we don’t and Trump 47 also not. This is a filling that was long overdue and has been brought to a enormous extent of company media that has acted as part of the Republican administrations for decades, such as a state organization under democratic administrations and DNC mouth products. No ounce sympathy from this corner. Not one.
