Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of President-elect Donald Trump, revealed that his father has considered barring certain mainstream media outlets from the White House press briefing room.Speaking on his podcast this week, Trump Jr. said the discussions included plans to broaden access to independent journalists and social media influencers.“We’ve talked about opening up the press room to a lot of these independent journalists,” Trump Jr. said.He questioned the dominance of traditional outlets, saying, “If The New York Times has lied and acted like the marketing arm of the Democrat party, why not give access to people with larger viewerships and stronger followings?”President-elect Trump has frequently criticized mainstream media outlets for their coverage, which he perceives as biased against him. On Tuesday, he targeted The New York Times after it reported on an internal review that alleged top aide Boris Epshteyn solicited payments from candidates seeking Cabinet positions.Additionally, Trump recently filed a lawsuit against CBS News over a controversial 60 Minutes interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. He has often derided outlets like CNN as “fake news,” extending his critique to other major networks.
