White House press corps

Donald Trump has repeatedly considered moving the entire White House press corps out of the White House, according to the Wall Street Journal. Such a relocation would upend decades of practice in which reporters work on-site with access to the president and his staff, and would likely draw strong objections from journalists and press freedom advocates.

CNN anchor Jake Tapper questioned the US Ambassador to the United Nations about an internal dispute involving CNN's pool of journalists covering the presidency. The on-air exchange put a member of the administration on the spot about press access and media treatment. The moment is drawing attention as tensions between the White House press corps and officials continue to make headlines.
