There should not be any press briefings unless the someone wishes to inform them of something. They are FREE to investigate and follow leads and work their butts off to get answers to questions they may have, Dialed up like a mob in a White House conference room not so much.
KY can't seriously believe what he wrote. If so he is incapable of abstract thought or comprehension.

Yep, stuff that will have results for 30-40 yrs in tons of nationwide lifetime appointments. Poor old ginsberg gotta stay on the bench till she croaks now, only to be replaced by a Trump appointee the day after the dirt gets thrown in her hole, bet life sucks for her everyday just knowing that . Hahaha!!!

People here swear by the Bill of Rights and strenuously defend the 2nd Amendment, but seem to forget there's a 1st Amendment.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Sure, it limits the Congress, but it also applies to the whole establishment.

Having or not having a press briefing has not a damned thing to do with the 1st!
I like them, 5 days a week. Tell it like it is.

I like hearing Sarah whip'em. I do too. The briefings are pointless though. Trump could cure cancer and the press would just want to know why he waited so long.

Unless you're a democrat. Then not having a press briefing is breaking the law. Don't matter they can't point to any law being broken. It's all about FEELINGS and their feelings hurt.
It's about like this:
"Do you puff peters?"
"Hell no!"
"NAZI!!!"

Yes.... Feelings... Not that it gets reported but occasionally some truth comes out at them, so there's that. Like to see that CNN guy get punched.

I think most reasonable Americans, regardless of any political party affiliation, figured out long ago that the majority of the press is biased against President Trump and is doing everything in their power to undermine his administration. As a result, their credibility and trustworthiness is lower than whale [bleep] in the eyes of most reasonable Americans. Therefore, most of us don't give a rip what their next headline regarding President Trump is.

Sure, it limits the Congress, but it also applies to the whole establishment. I'm always amazed how the media always quotes the 1st Amendment as Freedom of Speech but actually the first part is Freedom of Religion which they obviously hate.

The media puts out a 1,000 stories a day. About 10 of those are worth a damn. Instead of jumping through their hoops and responding to their every whim, control the narrative. Instead of playing word games, repeating what you read on some blog or web site, or chasing Tweets, maybe, just maybe, they should do, I don't know- JOURNALISM. They should investigate, research, formulate an opinion based on FACTS, not Party loyalty.

They can't do journalism..............they are not journalists & have zero journalistic talent. All they can do is play gotcha, accuse & play a biased game. Megan Kelley is a prime example, completely devoid of any journalistic talent whatsoever. Just shrill & accusing, with no unbiased position & no real fact finding.................ever. MM

I like hearing Sarah whip'em. Sarah and Kelly and those like them are the best protections the freedom of the press has going for it.

It’s press CORPS sir.
Freedom of the press is part of the First Amendment of the Constitution which is as important as all of the other Amendments.
Eliminating freedom of the press sounds like Stalin, Hitler Castro and a bunch of other two bit dictators, and not what has made the USA the great nation that it is. this as much as I hate the press

MM I do not know who Megan Kelly is, but Megyn Kelly made it to the top of her profession because of her talent. Her ratings and her paychecks prove that beyond question. Never my favorite, but the facts are the facts.

Respectfully, freedom of the Press or speech does not mean guaranteed access for same. Same as the 2nd does not require the Government of the day to provide citizens with small arms.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
