Should be interesting to see if press briefing is conducted under the new rules.

Lots of topics expected to be covered on both foreign and domestic issues.

https://www.syracuse.com/us-news/ind...nferences.html

ABC reports White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and deputy chief of staff for communications Bill Shine sent a letter to Acosta, CNN's Chief White House Correspondent, warning him that his credentials could be suspended or revoked again if he didn't follow a new code of conduct for President Donald Trump's press conferences.
I assume this revised code of conduct includes brown nosing and butt kissing as the only acceptable behaviors. Trump can dish it out but he can't take it.

As opposed to Obama where he strictly controlled the topics.


Not only did he control the questions, he would take one question and talk nonstop, droning on and on, to eat up time and keep the entire briefing limited to two or three questions.


'A 2013 report from the Committee to Protect Journalists, an organization dedicated to press freedoms, concludes Obama has mounted the "most aggressive" effort since President Richard M. Nixon to silence government officials and the media at large.'
'
When Obama sanctioned holder to falsify a warrant and judge shop to spy on journalists, that sent a shiver up the spine of America and sent the media and journalists a clear message that they would be persecuted by the Obama admin and charged with racism is they opposed any of his policies.


Remember whitehouse.gov asked for people tot turn in names of those who opposed obamacare?


Trump spends more time with the press and answers more questions than Obama ever did in 8 years.


Remember the transparency award Obama was awarded by omb watch? The press was excluded from the ceremony.


"Obama finally accepts his transparency award... behind closed doors"

In other words don't ask me questions that make me look bad !
This is really a 3-phase operation, this is just phase 1.

I think phase 2 will be for the WH to provide the press with approved questions to be asked. Phase 3 will also provide the way the WH requires answers written.

This will give enough time to get the US State Media operational. We could call it the Ministry of Truth, or, ‘Truth’ for short. I believe that’s Pravda in Russian, FYI.

"White House press", "conduct", and "Trump" should not belong in the same sentence.

Since when are Trump supporters concerned about civility? Their main man is the epitome of non-civility. Nasty man.

The rules are not about topics, they are about behavior.

Science is full of contradictions, due to different samples, different methodologies, different apparatus, different time periods etc.
