Jen Psaki, now at MS NOW after serving as White House Press Secretary under Joe Biden, said on air that there aren't enough 'excellent journalists' asking questions at the current White House, adding that the public isn't getting 'transparent information' as a result. Commenters and the article's outlet responded by recalling instances during Psaki's own tenure, including reports of journalists receiving pre-screened questions and note cards.
The piece contrasts Psaki's complaint with recollections of softer coverage during her time behind the podium, including a widely-shared question about Biden's favorite ice cream flavor. It frames her remarks as nostalgia for a friendlier press corps rather than a genuine complaint about journalistic rigor.
