White House Officials Beg Major News Outlets For Positive Coverage in Secret Meetings
Oh, how the tables have turned...
https://thegreggjarrett.com/white-house-officials-beg-major-news-outlets-for-positive-coverage-in-secret-meetings/The Washington Times reports the White House is “reportedly unhappy with the media coverage of President Biden and has embarked on a mission to change that, according to a report late Tuesday.” Biden, and Democratic administrations in general, are not used to the harsh criticism of the press; because they rarely endure it.
Nonetheless, CNN reported that three top White House officials are secretly meeting with major news outlets in an attempt to lure them into more favorable coverage of Biden. CNN did not name the specific outlets the administration officials met with, but noted anchors, producers and reporters were in the meetings.
According to the report, officials are asking for positive stories surrounding job creation, the economy, supply chain and want the spin that the economy is in better shape than it was last year.
White House officials attending the meetings are reported to be National Economic Deputy Directors David Kamin and Bharat Ramamurti, and Ports Envoy John Porcari.
