BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – A new, eyebrow-raising report suggests the White House communications team has attempted to screen questions for press secretary Jen Psaki in advance of daily briefings, as media watchdogs caution that the Biden team will have to walk a fine line given the way reporters treated President Trump’s spokespeople.
Spectator USA editor Amber Athey, who used to be a White House correspondent for The Daily Caller, never experienced anything resembling what Biden’s communications staff has been accused of.
“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,” Athey told Fox News.
Press secretary Jen Psaki responded to the allegation. “For the record, we are not screening questions,” she began. “We are just respectfully asking the press to let us review their questions beforehand, so we can swap some of them out with different questions, to reduce the possible of the idiocy in this administration being exposed to public ridicule.”
