Inside the Trump White House Now – The Washington Post’s Ashley Parker
May 19, 2020•56 min•Season 1Ep. 14
Episode description
The scenes at the White House press briefings have been wild for years. Crazy talk about injecting bleach and light are the latest. Ashley Parker covered Mitt Romney in 2012 and Jeb Bush and then President Trump's run for the Presidency in 2016 when she was with The New York Times and she now covers the Trump White House for The Washington Post. From her earliest years as a journalist, and she is still very young, she has held major leaders accountable with the power of her reporting. We wanted to know what it’s like to cover the Trump White House right now. In the briefing room. In the Rose Garden. In the hallways. As the Covid death toll mounts, the economy tanks, and the November election looms up on the horizon, how will she approach this unusual Presidency full of misinformation, exaggerations and untruths who casts journalists themselves in opposition to him as we head into election season?
