Former and current White House correspondents tell Fox News Digital how they view the role of the press secretary as Karine Jean-Pierre steps behind the podium.
Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked Jean-Pierre about a recent President Biden tweet claiming the best way to deal with the current inflation rate would be to make sure the 'wealthiest corporations pay their fair share.'took as she began her White House press secretary tenure on Monday, a reporter asked how she viewed her job.
The question got to the heart of what a press secretary is supposed to be and how they handle the inherent tensions of the job; on one hand, they serve at the pleasure of the president and are supposed to make the White House look good, but they also are expected to disseminate accurate information, work with reporters on their stories, and serve as a conduit between the press and the commander-in-chief.
"Your salary is paid by taxpayers," a former White House correspondent told Fox News Digital."You are the spokesperson for the president, but you are also the chief spokesperson for the executive branch of the U.S. government. It’s not a job that is solely spin and political. You have a responsibility to provide reliable and factual information on the activities of the U.S. government.
