Rumor is they, the press, might be drug tested.

LOVE IT!!! The MSM is about to become irrelevant. The unfiltered truth will reach the masses.

I would have it in the biggest room possible with the first row being assigned seating with those given out the night before, also the first row would be the only seats, everyone else would have to stand behind the first row.

The meeting would start late every time, sometimes 15 min., sometimes an hour. When some members of the press who do not have a seat get tired of all that standing and show up late knowing it will start late, I would start on time and be done as soon as possible, anything to fck with the press.

Actually, there should be plenty of room with all the CNN reps excluded.

Should hold it under a tent with no A/C.

This could be awesome. Tabloids like CNN and Buzzfeed can be drowned out by more legitimate news sources from around the country.

CNN is going nuts over this!
"They can't move us out of the people's house" ... Smerconish


Maybe Trump will reconvert the WH Briefing Room back to its original indoor pool . . . for historical purposes ofcourse. I'd guess the ghost of Jack Kennedy has quite fond memories of Fiddle-Faddling in that pool.

For MSM-types complaining there should always be a press pool in the WH, Trump could satisfy all parties by naming his historical refurbishment "The Press Pool"

Russian journalist Alexey Kovalev, speaking from his own experience, published a letter to the US press on Medium about what to expect from Trump's behavior toward journalists:

Congratulations, US media! You've just covered your first press conference of an authoritarian leader with a massive ego and a deep disdain for your trade and everything you hold dear. We, in Russia, have been doing it for 12 years now—?with a short hiatus when our leader wasn’t technically our leader?—?so quite a few things during Donald Trump's press conference rang my bells.

Yeah that was posted last week.

Here's my response from last week.

Another loon that doesn't understand that journalists killed journalism.

The press room is definitely too smal. I had a west wing tour when GHW was in office and I couldn't believe that was what I had seen on TV all those years. Needs an upgrade.

This.

If they want to know who is at fault, the press needs only look in the mirror.
