Seth Meyers responds to Trumps audio fail amid press ban
Donald Trump was inaudible during a White House-livestreamed ribbon-cutting ceremony on Monday. No press pool? No audio.
On Monday, President Donald Trump's inaudible delivery during a White House ribbon-cutting ceremony came as no surprise. The cause was clear: no press pool and no audio recording. The recent revocation of press access to the White House by Trump marked a breach of the First Amendment, specifically the freedom of the press. CNN, Politico, and MSN have launched a lawsuit, demanding the restoration of press access.
Several networks have boycotted coverage of White House events, which traditionally are covered by the press pool. Seth Meyers, host of Late Night with Seth Meyers, highlighted the irony during his show on Tuesday. "If you're going to ban news organizations from the White House, you really need to learn how to project," Meyers remarked.
