CNN and much of the rest of the legacy news media, if not outright dead.

Because they went after Trump and the whole country saw that they had an agenda.

It was possibly no more evident than in the televised debates.

The idiots thought the whole nation was as behind them as were their daily viewers. In trying to expose Trump, they hung themselves on their own petard in front of the whole nation.

On a shelf in the West Wing press room during Trump's first term.

It’s time to just get rid of in-person press conferences and repurpose the current press room as much-needed office space.

I believe the room used to be the location of the indoor pool where JFK used to knock off those four office girls when Jackie thought he was leading the space race, getting the missiles out of Cuba, or desegregating schools.

Nixon had it repurposed as the old press room was a crowded mess and not very telegenic. His gracious gesture resulted in very fair treatment by US media. /rimshot!

Virtual presence is how things are done in plenty of work contexts now, and more news outlets and purveyors could then participate. MOST of the time prerecorded releases would just appear on the White House streaming feed.

Cleanse?

On the same day as the thread for the story of that man who never washes.

Good tie in.

I would like to see people such as a Joe Rogan representative in a front row chair at the daily briefing.

As we used to say, it’s not dead yet, but it’s on the cart.

Like 7 out of the 8 front row seats in the press room offered Jen Psaki a job immediately after she left.

"(CNN) is not even shown in most airport terminals anymore."

Airport passengers used to be CNN's primary audience, and now they're gone.

"CNN and much of the rest of the legacy news media..."

I see the now named "Legacy News Media" used to be called something
else made it into "The American Thinker" without a peep about being
manipulated into buying into the left's newest let's come up with a new
term straight outa Marx. You know, like "Climate Change" was getting
old and "The Climate Crisis" really puts a cutting edge on the issue.
So, it's "The Legacy Media" and from now on, make sure to stick your
nose in the air, arch your eyebrows and speak in reverent tones when
you utter the term, "The Legacy Media"

I detest the Washington Press Corps (WHPC). The sooner they’re gone, the better.

Most of the reporters are left-wing political hacks. Democrat voters love the WHPC.

Republican voters wonder why their issues and concerns aren’t addressed. It’s been going on for decades.

Similar to left-wing hacks moderating presidential debates. Decades.
