Karoline Leavitt shocked the White House with her latest move! The youngest press secretary in history appeared on a podcast with Sean Spicer, who served as President Donald Trump’s press secretary for the first six months of 2017. Leavitt declared that she wouldn’t be part of the White House Correspondents’ Association’s (WHCA) dinner scheduled for April 26.
“I will not be in attendance at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, and that’s breaking news for ‘The Sean Spicer Show’,” Leavitt said. Meanwhile, the correspondents’ dinner is a formal event to honor journalists and media house members assigned to cover the president of the United States, White House events, and news briefings.
According to Fox News, Karoline Leavitt feels that the committee has not welcomed new media houses or independent journalists to the space over the years, and it’s time to change that style of functioning.
Therefore, in February, the White House announced that it would choose journalists for the 13-member pool, breaking the WHCA’s tradition of selecting the group.
