Recent reports have shed light on a surprising sentiment among some members of the White House Press Corps during Joe Biden’s presidency. According to The Columbia Journalism Review, there were reporters who expressed relief at the prospect of being rid of the Biden press operation.
One print reporter shared, “There’ve been fewer eyeballs on the press briefings and less attention than under Trump, so people just don’t understand some of the very frustrating things that we’ve dealt with and that we hope are going to be rolled back.”
Among the frustrations cited were limitations on access to the president and fewer opportunities for formal interviews compared to previous administrations. Some reporters felt marginalized in the briefing room, with only those in front-row seats getting ample chances to ask questions.
Despite these challenges, White House reporters have a responsibility to fulfill their duties by attending briefings and reporting on government activities for the public.
