President Joe Biden’s communications team has at times probed reporters to see what questions they plan on asking White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, prompting concerns among the press corps, three sources with knowledge of the matter told The Daily Beast.
Leaders of a White House Correspondents Association Zoom call last Friday advised print reporters not to reveal to the White House press team their questions in advance.
“While it’s a relief to see briefings return ... the press can't really do its job in the briefing room if the White House is picking and choosing the questions they want,” one White House correspondent said. “That's not really a free press at all.”
Spectator USA editor Amber Athey, who used to be a White House correspondent, told Fox News on Tuesday that "The Trump administration certainly never asked me for questions in advance, and I suspect there would have been universal outrage from reporters if they had done so."
Ya think?

If they seek to limit questions, the press should revolt. But knowing some of the questions in advance is sort of a nothing burger without some indication of a sinister motive.

Imagine preparing to answer questions so what you had to say would be responsive and informative.RaceBannon said:

So easy to be a principled person. -
We've been fed a steady diet of how this is the bestest press secretary EVER but she needs the questions in advance because she can't think on her feet or she's a moron

I think you may have forgotten that the point of press conferences isn't to test the Press Secretary. If no one can follow up or ask an unexpected question, let us know. Otherwise, much outrage about nothing.RaceBannon said:We've been fed a steady diet of how this is the bestest press secretary EVER but she needs the questions in advance because she can't think on her feet or she's a moron

Just like Hillary needing the questions from CNN before the debate the left is a bunch of morons apparently
The press conference is for questions. Not an advance screening of questions. You know this but are such a partisan hack you can't help yourself

Why hold a press conference at all? Just submit your questions to the White House Press office and wait for your "Official" response.HHusky said:

This isn't that hard, old man. If the Press Secretary will not answer questions that haven't been pre-screened, we agree that's awful, and the press should push back hard. If the press can still ask questions that aren't pre-screened and follow-up on answers, who the fuck cares? -
Then that will become obvious. Very obvious.pawz said:

As they should be. The press is not the friend of the administration even if its democrats
If she can't handle the heat find someone that can. She is clearly a moron over her head. No need to circle back to that its a fact -
Or you could just hire a press secretary who isn't a fucking moron and doesn't suck at their job. They aren't expected to know everything but they are expected to be up on the latest activities going on with the Administration. Funny how this only appears to be standard that applies to Rat Party press secretaries. There is no shame in saying you don't know the answer to certain questions and most of the questions being asked since Biden took over are fucking softballs anyway and she still struggles to do a good job.HHusky said:

She sucked when she was at the State Department, she is now just on a bigger stage and she still sucks. -

So no need to pre screen then
Thanks -
Dazzler is full-on supportive of the Biden regime screening questions prior to a “press” conference.
Any other Biden bootlickers agree with this sort of intimidation of the free “press?”
Or just Adolph? -
Funny how every Trump PS was a moron and a liar but didn't need pre screened questions to face a hostile press

Seriously, if you're pre-screening the questions you're going to get then just pull the plug on the entire charade. If the Press had any fucking integrity they would never allow this and would boycott any press briefing that had pre-screened questions. They aren't supposed to be PR flaks for the Administration who just "report" what's in the official WH press releases but many in the press believe that's their role when a Rat is in the WH.NorthwestFresh said:Dazzler is full-on supportive of the Biden regime screening questions prior to a “press” conference.

So extremely rare press sessions are replaced by frequent press sessions and you are trying to find something to criticize that hasn't happened, and may not happen.pawz said:
