Because when they do they are banned from the press conferences.

So Christine, they should all stop going. Why don't they all take the day off, go to the zoo and report on the monkeys? It's the same sort of thing, just with more honesty.

When they kicked out the AP, all of the legitimate press should have walked out in solidarity. They could have made a statement. Instead they will be picked off one by one.

100% agree Carolee.

Exactly. Leave her standing at her podium all alone. No point in being a reporter if you don’t or are scared to ask the right questions.

they just fill it with stooges like MTGs boyfriend.

And? What's the point of having access when said access does not give you anything worthwhile? At best it turns you into a willing accomplice, esp. if you anyway report on things with "he said it's raining, she said it's not" instead of checking whether it is or isn't.

Good point. I value AP for standing their ground, even when they don't have access. And what does that mean anyway? It's just crap upon crap.

In the process, they’re turning themselves into stooges.

Maybe they should all get banned for asking real questions. And when there’s no one there, who is she going to jabber at? I suppose Newsmax will be there no matter what.

Exactly. The only ones left will be the Trump ass kissers.

Boo fucking hoo. Get banned then

It'd be nice if they just reported it, they don't need to be in the sycophantic love-in that those press conferences have become.

Our press are just stenographers. Barely of them think for themselves, and if they do, they’re probably worried about being banned from the room like the AP was/is(?).
