Mark Knoller-

.@PressSec cancelled today's regular WH press briefing, and is holding Q&A session for "expanded pool" but no TV camera coverage.

“They came to us and said the story’s not true,” said @PressSec of FBI telling @reince about @nytimes report on probe of Trump-Russia links.

Spicer said @Reince asked @FBI to make a statement that report of investigation not true & FBI told @Reince that he should tell reporters.

***Blake Burman-Fox Business was excluded. Just the pool invited.

Sean actually calls on Blake Burman from FBN a lot - some have even commented on FBN that they were happy he is being called on. I suspect Spicer felt if they had Fox in their, they didn’t need FBN, too - just like if NBC is in there, they don’t also need to have MSNBC.
