CNN was not permitted to attend, along with the New York Times, Politico, Buzzfeed and much of the foreign press that regularly attends White House briefings.

Honestly, I think they moved to a smaller room and there wasn’t room for everyone.
I can't believe "Smart" phone voice recognition in the year 2017 is still crap >:P
I bet the drama queen Shep Smith is in a real lather over this!
HA !
Title should be corrected to read “Fake News blocked from attending White House gaggle”
Regarding CNN, I’ll take that infamous phrase from that idiot Jeremiah Wright..
“God damn CNN, their chickens are coming hoooommmeeee to roost!”
LMAO
Absolute kittens over at DU.
Queue the ZOTT KITTIES!
OMG, the polls on that FoxNews site are totally anti-Trump. Hopeless
Thank you for your service. I would have expected no less.
"Gaggles" historically refer to informal briefings the press secretary conducts with the press pool rather than the entire press corps....they were more or less off the record, and their purpose was mostly to exchange information - the president's schedule and briefing schedule, from the administration side; heads-up on likely topics or early comment on pressing issues, from the news side....When the President traveled, sometimes the press secretary would hold a gaggle with the press pool that travels on Air Force One - not every time, but sometimes, and always informally."
Being Friday after lunch, Spicer actually just banned the reporters with alcohol on their breaths.
BOOM! Why not. They just make it up anyway!
Do they know Donald Trump? If they don’t yet, they’d better get to know who he is.. they lie about him, he isn’t about to take it. He is not the wimp republicans... he is not going to invite the snakes into the room... no more than we’d invite the enemy into our homes. I would have kept them out before now.... they can’t keep writing such things and a day or so later say it was not accurate.
They are causing real deep problems in our country by trying to do this to him.
They spend all their reporting on telling everyone who they think this man Trump, is.... instead of reporting the things he does for the country, every day. They just try to explain him as they see him through their biased eyes... and it’s not what they are supposed to be about.
I have the sneaking suspicion that Trump is taking cues from Rush.
Early on, in his opening monologue, Rush railed for the need to meet the media head on, squash the fake news, etc.

They don’t need to be there anyways. It’s for reporters. They don’t have to attend to make up their fake news stories.
Exactly!
seems CNN is considering it a badge of honor and will continue to badger our POTUS from the tweets and comments at the site
Gaggle?
Better words never spoken!
