In an ideal world where the New York Times wasn't influential and taken as gospel by those who think they are "in the know", a Republican president could tell his staff not to speak with their reporters. But we don't live in that perfect world.
The White House has to speak to the MSM. If they don't, their political enemies will have the first bite at the apple, framing what they think is the "news" in the worst possible way to the administration.
It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it.
