Just In The White House’s New Press Strategy Has Reporters Furious

The White House is adopting a new approach to the way that it handles press briefings with the hopes of messing with reporters, CNN reported. The approach works like this: the White House will host a public briefing one day and then cancel their briefings for the next few days, causing outrage from media outlets and their reporters. When the anger over a lack of press briefings builds up, the White House will host an off-camera briefing and continue the process all over again. Reporters have grown furious with this method as they are continually worked up into a frenzy over the White House’s constant changes to the press briefings, how they are conducted and the lack of answers from Press Secretary Sean Spicer.

Four thousand more questions about Russia is a deliberate waste of peoples’ time, and they deserve to be treated with the utmost contempt for attempting to pass this behavior off as journalism or in the public interest.

Certainly beats a day at the cinema :-) We should begin to place our bets. How long will this continue before the dogs performing their tricks cease their antics and take a nap, chew on their bone, or lose interest and begin running after automobiles.

President Trump should fly to a remote location, have all the WH presstitutes flown there separately with promise of big breaking news.... then announce the big news on Twitter and fly both planes away, leaving the presstitutes stranded and crying.

Good idea ... the ultimate troll.

The problem is if the president doesn’t give them something they will simply make stuff up to report. Oh wait.....

A bunch of reporters stranded in the middle of the Nevada Test Site ... Awesome. Do it in August ... or December.

If their real motive was to report the news, then why do they need to be ‘on camera’ to report the news. In reality, its all about them, not the news.

Keep them unsettled, mess their rhythm. If they cannot give you a fair shake, don't play fair with them.

If they have willingly become mouthpieces of the extreme elements of the opposition party, treat them as the opposition party.

Not only will there be an MSM frenzy, BUT the WHite House Communications office can leak the news daily to supportive news outlets: Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Savage nation, etc.

And there will be nothing that the lefty fake news services can do about it at all.

Brilliant!

The most hilarious thing is CNN sending in a courtroom sketch artist, like it’s vital to the American people to see the press room! Uh, it’s just Sean Spicer; he looks the same every day at the podium.
Now if it were Melissa McCarthy doing Spicey, that might need a sketch artist...

Trump should tell the press “corpse” that he’ll only answer questions from Russian reporters who wear pussy hats.
