NEW YORK — Following the apparent demise of the traditional afternoon briefing of reporters, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told Fox News Channel on Wednesday that any notion the Trump administration is not accessible to the press is “absolutely laughable.”
“I take questions from reporters every single day,” she said.
Sanders‘ venue for the statement, the morning show “Fox & Friends,” was familiar. Since Dec. 18, the day of the last White House press briefing, she’s given eight television interviews - six of them on Fox News Channel, according to networks and the liberal watchdog group Media Matters for America. She also appeared once on “CBS This Morning” and had a notably tough interview with Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday,” which is seen on both the Fox broadcast and cable news network.
Sanders has been interviewed on “Fox & Friends,” the agenda-setting morning show popular with Trump supporters, on Dec. 21, Jan. 4, Jan. 9, Jan. 16 and Wednesday. On Tuesday night, she appeared on Sean Hannity’s prime-time show, according to Media Matters.
President Donald Trump tweeted a day earlier that he had told Sanders not to bother with the afternoon briefing with White House reporters from all credentialed outlets because she has been treated rudely and inaccurately by the “fake news” media.

Good for Sarah! She is a remarkable young woman. As Dear Abby once said, no one can make a fool out of you without your consent! Sarah is nobody’s fool!
Seems like it took the WH a long time to ‘get it’. Better late than never.
Bump!
Ellsworth M. Toohey had a similar victory in The Fountainhead.
lol
At this point there should be some kind of news award for that.
Since there CAN’T be one for most truthful anymore.
To this day I am shocked that hitlery and Bill and obummer and the ForeverBadIntentions allowed Trump to win.
That should be dripping sarcasm but it’s actually not.
I did not think the swamp and one worlders would allow a fair vote. If you don’t count the 5 million illegals who voted for Hillary. And the fraud. And the tampering.
