Yes, it is surprising what MISinformation comes out when someone complains!
What Actually Happened
Rule Changes in 2023: New standards for permanent White House press credentials required annual renewals and proof of active use.
Reduction in Passes: Hard pass holders decreased by about 440 as many failed to reapply or meet the new criteria.
No Bans Imposed: Reporters without renewed hard passes retained access via day passes, with only one formal denial issued.
More explanations below: Verified
In 2023 under President Joe Biden, the White House changed policies for journalists to receive a āhard pass,ā which allows them unaccompanied access to the White Houseās press areas. The yearly passes expired in July that year, and journalists were told they had to reapply under a new set of criteria.
The new criteria included that they be employed by a news organization, have a physical address in the greater Washington, D.C. area and have accessed the White House for work at least once in the past six months.
About 500 fewer reporters had the hard pass as a result, but none were banned from covering the White House. Many did not reapply and those who did could apply for day passes, which mandate they be escorted to the White Houseās press areas.
Now that the facts are cleared up, chuckle with me thatās it is just one more lie in the daily life of Bozo at OUR White House!
Broaden your focus!
It was the United Nations Annual Meeting, 81st session of the General Assembly. Of course news media was invited to attend. 193 member states are represented.
Trump isnāt the BigBoy focus anymore. In fact, he was rambling on, threatening, and not one face smiled, nodded in agreement with his lies, or clapped in assent.
He was again a total embarrassment!
Yes, thank you, for international news coverage to show exactly what is currently happening.
Hint, you donāt ask the president questions if your boycotting him.
Thatās like boycotting Wal-Mart, I just buy groceries there. Sad understanding of boycott.
I think bias reporting and deliberately withholding the truth and distorting what Trump actually said by reporting and taking it out of context, is the abuse of freedom of speechā¦
These days politicians have no defence against this abuse by the media, and the recipients of that news are misled at the least.
Even when the coverage is live in the Oval Office or on the tarmac?
We see him lie every single time he opens his mouth.
Then he distorts the statement to his liking or gets enraged. Thatās why I continue to watch him make a fool of himself. After 18 months, itās boring, but we real Americans just canāt believe heās that much of a true narcissist.
At the UN meeting, cameras caught the other delegates forced to shake his hand out of politeness because he wouldnāt walk away from them. Then, they turned their heads away and rolled their eyes! Now, thatās live moments on cameras from international networks.
Bowing is not a requirement but a lot of them bowed. That part of rolling their eyes was ones opinion saying thatās what they should of done.
Iāve just surfed all the major news networks, guess who is on all day of them. You got it, Trump. I donāt see how this boycott is going to last or even start!
News agencies donāt know how to report the news and obviously donāt know how to boycott. CNN got corrected again on a live broadcast. While supposedly boycotting. I was wondering if someone could tell if stupid pills over the counter or prescription?
