Ideas, please add yours. This is a perfect opportunity to use the White House press corp pass as a means of fixing the media.
To get a Whitehouse press pass:
Media organization MUST have a comments section on their website open to public criticism and largely unedited/moderated.
All lies presented by the media organization needs to be refuted THREE times in the same timeslot/web-site prominence/periodical prominence on said media organization.
The first thing that needs to be done is break the "Press Association" (or whatever they call themselves.)
They also need to be moved out of the WH proper. They can be relocated to the office building next door, in a room large enough to allow for alternative media, such as RAV.
Seating in the room needs to accentuate alternative media. The legacy MSM can be seated in the back row. They don't like it, they can pound dirt. Let them continue to trash their way into irrelevance. I mean, they are basically there now.
Beyond time for the Pravda platoon to be put in their place.
Bad idea to move the press out of the WH. You want the reliable, not propaganda, press to be able to see what's going on in the WH. This has been proposed in the past when reporters did real reporting not propaganda and it was soundly rejected. And that was before they expanded the briefing room. I'd love to see what they've done with the press room because it was beyond crammed. Not space to take a deep breath between reporters. WH is an old building and wasn't designed for modern uses.
You said it, it is an old building. If you are going to include new, more credible news providers, who are you going to exclude in order to make additional room? The second building is in close proximity to the WH. I would think that any communication issues should be able to be overcome by technology, and a forward thinking Communications Director. Maintaining the status quo is exactly what the legacy MSM wants, and that's what needs to change.
