As a lifetime journalist, he should be on the side of The Association press In his legal fight with Trump’s White House.
And it would be if the AP were the neutral wire service and driven by the facts it used to be.
Unfortunately, it has become another opinion of the leftist disguised as direct news.
And as its fight with the White House demonstrates, it is also a series of an elite right of law.
The case involves the AP statements that its freedom of expression was raped when it was started from its long -standing place in the press group, a small group of inherited media that have almost daily access to the president.
The AP was one of the three cable services in the group, along with Reuters and Bloomberg.
Others that obtain special access include television and cable companies, photographers, radio reporters and rotating members of points of sale.
He refused to adjust
Because there was only one reserved place for printed reporters, most only had a monthly opportunity to interrogate the president in small space events, such as the Oval Office and Air Force One.
The AP obtained the group’s start after he refused to change his influential style book and continued referring to the “Gulf of Mexico” after President Trump’s president changed the name to “Gulf of America. “
I agreed with the federal judge who ruled that degradation unfairly punished the AP, but I have even admired the way in which the White House has used the case to carry out a very necessary movement to democratize access to the president.
Press Secretary Karoline LeavittWho at 27 is the young man to occupy his work, assumed the position of wanting to open the new media, including nervous podcasts, political influencers and specialized wire services.
That the new access would imply adding some conservative voices and dilute the almost leftist monopoly, the inherited media were inevitable.
A first step involved an intelligent response to the court order, which the AP said
Then, instead of putting the AP in its guaranteed place, the White House eliminated the three cable services and included them in a group of other 31 organizations, while added a second place of printing for the events of a small space.
The new rotation means that it is a guaranteed daily place, each of the cables will enter the small events approximately once a month.
Naturally, Reuters and Bloomberg are also howling on their decreased access and the AP
The judge, Trevor N. McFadden, of the Federal District Court in DC, disagree.
He said Friday that he needed more to study the problem, but that the White House seemed to be acting in “good faith”, presumable because the new policy follows its order over the AP and its classmates.
In fact, as the White House said, “no other news organization in the United States receives receives the level of guaranteed access previously granted to the AP. It may have become accustomed to its favored state as an Etry suit.
Beyond exposing the sense of law of the AP, the case opens the administration plan to break the modern media inherited from the privileged media to the White House, as well as other federal agencies, such as the departments of state and defense.
Guardian mentality
His guardian’s mentality has become an acute problem in the two Trump terms because many of the inherited points of sale are openly hostile to him and the Republican party.
There are almost zero “straight” reports, with almost all the stories every day distorted by a personal mood towards the president and conservative ideas.
The approach is the opposite of how those same organizations covered the presidency of Biden.
His blocking behavior in those years presented softball, a friendly coverage, even when the public rejected inflation and open borders, which adds to the evidence that the big media are out of tune with most Americans.
The resulting decrease in public confidence in the media is justified, and almost all these organizations ignore the LapTop Biden Hunter Biden scandal.
And despite being supposedly guardians of freedom of expression, none opposes the censorship schemes orchestrated by the White House to protect the first family from the reports in the position and in other places of corruption.
In addition, none of the inherited points of sale showed curiosity about the obvious mental and physical decline of Joe Biden.
In fact, some like the New York Times, they repeated the lie of the White House that the president’s decline statements involved altered videos and right -wing points.
It was only after the disastrous performance of the Biden debate last June, and the panic that Trump won the elections, that the media noticed their condition and declared, in unison, that he had to leave the race.
As soon as he did, everyone got on the Kamala Harris car and unanimously declared their campaign full of “joy.”
Therefore, they can now avoid their statements that they are essential for good governance and public knowledge. Too often, they have protected corruption and cheated the public.
This control of related ideas sale creates an almost coverage monopoly, one that involves the Association of correspondents of the White House.
It is a private group that for decades establishes the pool for small space events and also assigns the 49 seats in the separate information room, all of which are heroes of Legacy Media.
Middle media Apple card
They, along with the times and others, are furious because Leavitt has bothered his apple car when pulling the pool and opening the information room to the newcomers.
Ofes, since you can see many people with new credentials with new standing credentials along the sides of the room, and some have the opportunity to ask a question.
And now the reports say that the equation is changing the assigned seats.
Oh, no, the sky is falling, shouts the association of correspondents.
Acting as a union that loses its control over power, Leavitt warns against making changes in the seat table.
In a statement, he said that the White House “should abandon this wrong effort and show that the American people love their policies and field questions of an independent medium free of government control.”
There lies the concept, which only the hostile media for Trump are “independent.”
This is the attitude that the AP tok with severely inflated statements that its degradation “focuses on the government that blocks AP’s access to coverage events”, as if the agency had been expelled from the White House.
Fact verification: false!
In truth, Trump is the most accessible president in modern times, and probably taking more questions in a few months that Biden Tok in four years.
Until a moment, he suggests that false news, which unfortunately describe what AP and his travel companions are selling days of thesis.
