I noticed that Weijii had a paper notepad sitting on her lap today. It would be very good if the press is no longer permitted to bring in their laptops. They do not even pay attention to the answers given to other reporters, maybe not even to the presentations. They sit their getting “gotcha” questions from outside the briefing room and tweeting during the briefing. That is ridiculous.
“””They do not even pay attention to the answers given to other reporters, maybe not even to the presentations.”””
I remember Alex Azar made a presentation. Five minutes a later a reporter asked a question that Azar had clearly made in his presentation. Azar returned to the podium and repeated verbatim what he had said 5 minutes earlier.
No the reporters do not listen at all. Their minds are totally focused on the gotcha question they have been assigned to ask.
I suspect most reporters need to receive prompt medical attention for their ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDERS.
