The New York Post’s Steven Nelson grilled White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about an alleged blacklist for press events biased against certain media outlets in a press conference Thursday.
“For more than a year now the White House press office has been having … press events in the state room, state dining room, the executive office building,” Nelson said. “There’s a process where people are selected and able to go into these presidential events where the president often takes questions.”
“The correspondence association has tried in vain to figure out how this process works,” Nelson continued, “and overtime it has kind of morphed into a kind of black list where certain large media outlets such as my own are—,”
Jean-Pierre then cut off Nelson, asking, “Blacklist?”
“I’m just saying I represent the fourth largest newspaper in the country and I haven’t been selected since November,” Nelson responded.
