Trump White House May Grant Press Credentials to Independent Media, Influencers, Challenging WHCA's Seating Control
Nov 26, 2024, 02:31 AM
The Trump White House is reportedly considering granting press credentials to independent journalists, new media outlets, and influencers. This move could potentially challenge the traditional role of the White House Correspondents Association (WHCA), which currently controls seating assignments in the press briefing room. Critics of the WHCA argue that its control over seating arrangements limits access for independent media, with some calling for reforms to make the process more inclusive. Proposals include replacing the WHCA with alternative groups, such as one led by Chanel Rion, to oversee press credentials and seating assignments. Critics have also described the WHCA's practices as outdated and likened them to 'mean girls' behavior.
