Please re-create and re-define the WH Press Pool...with new and relevant ways of transferring information........
Get rid of CNN,MSN,FOX, ABC, CBS, NBC....ad nausea......They are all like petrified dirt clods in the drain...blocking any new ideas from the flow of oxygen
Who needs the press, when you have Twitter?
No need for WH press pool these days. Just use Twitter to make your talking points.
may want to reconsider your desperate plea and think of your screen name......Be careful.
He should provide coloring books and puppies for the press. While ignoring them.
If he did that it would go a long way in draining the swamp! The farce that is the Washington press core needs to be abolished asap
Who would he take questions from though?
They can have their own radio show where they take questions from the people once/week. They can have a tv show that does the same. There are no shortage of ways to go around the press. They are dishonest and the last thing they care about is getting the news to the people
That would leave them open to charges of setups (fake callers etc).
He can just tweet to whomever he wants, or have his press sec do it.
Jim Thompson.
We have freedom of the press. That includes the liberal press.
I prefer to see the liberal press wither due to the public realizing (what we conservatives have known all along) that they are lying scumbags.
Capitalism is a wonderful thing. Let the market take care of these lying weasels.
You really think they are afraid to answer a few questions? In any event, with the Washington press core all of the questions are by fake journalist anyways so it couldn’t be any worst.
good call
From WTP....you remember, the voters? Not to bring up an old nemesis, FDR did this well using only one flow of information - his fireside chats with America.
We now have the ability to have information flowing in both directions. The MFM has attempted to use even this to their advantage. They ‘take questions from twitter” and chose only those they wish to ask President Trump (who then answers) President Trump himself would allow information to flow in both directions. Voters across the nation would be able to talk with him in a direct conversation. Questions, suggestions, ideas,concerns. In this way the citizens would truly be ‘in touch’ with their government and know the government is aware of their concerns. They are involved in governing just as the ‘elites’ would be involved. This would be another score in order to win back our America.
I agree. Invite fresh and objective media sources. The MSM is rotten to the core.
It can all be done online now interactively without the media’s admission of its filter to tell us what was said, in their world.
Have fewer press briefings after the immediate need to inform us of the transition and new directions and then present where they are going. Questions can be submitted and answered directly from the agency responsible for its management on a weekly basis.
Otherwise, hold immediate information news conferences only when warranted and let us all get back to living our lives, mostly devoid of worrying about what they are up to next. If we want to know, then go directly to the agency, you’ll get your answer.
Raise the thresholds for access to the press pool. Reduce numbers by half.
