Media - NYT, WSJ, WAPO don't travel with President because of covid-19

They say because he was positive they are scared to get on the plane with him. Where I come from we call that a chickenshit. If I were Trump I'd ban them from the room and from the plane for eternity if they don't trust the doctor's diagnosis that he is clean to be around.

Several media outlets decided not to travel on Air Force One with President Trump as he traveled to a rally in Florida, citing concerns over his recent COVID-19 diagnosis, despite the White House physician clearing him to return to the stump.

The New York Times reported Monday that The Washington Post and Wall Street Journal have joined the "Gray Lady," a nickname for The New York Times, in choosing not to send any journalists, to ride with the president.

Other media organizations and websites which have recently avoided Whtie House press pool duty reportedly include Politico, Hearst Newspapers and BuzzFeed, according to the Times.

“White House reporters had safety concerns and were not comfortable traveling with the president at this time,” Elisabeth Bumiller, Washington bureau chief for the Times said.
