Scripps Information intends to cowl the Trump administration briefings the identical approach we’re protecting Biden’s, taking them reside on the deserves of the information of the day—which possible means usually contemplating the coverage adjustments which might be anticipated—permitting the general public to expertise the essential back-and-forth between the federal government and the press as instantly as doable.
And, as we do with Biden, we’ll try to deliver readability and context to what’s being mentioned and inform our viewers if and when the administration misrepresents the details as we perceive them to be. We make no prior assumptions about how the Trump White Home intends to conduct the briefings and so haven’t any plan to do something apart from what we’ve all the time carried out, which is to take our function extraordinarily critically and maintain ourselves to the best skilled requirements.
By Scripps Information’ “Fact be Informed” sequence, we now have a group of reporters who concentrate on shortly exposing falsehoods, whether or not they come from the White Home or the president-elect’s political opponents, and count on these groups to be very busy.

Trace: It’s not the opposite reporters within the briefing room.
