America's Voice News:President Biden’s communications staff has reportedly probed reporters to see what questions they plan on asking new White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki when called upon during briefings, according to the Daily Beast.“While it’s a relief to see briefings return, particularly with a commitment to factual information, 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.”Naturally the journalists are sensitive to being perceived as working closely with the White House, and some were not happy with the probe: “It pissed off enough reporters for people to flag it for the [WHCA] for them to deal with it,” another source told The Daily Beast.Source:https://buff.ly/2MpnwIU
