WH is now making it a violation punishable by revocation of a journalist's hard pass to ask unapproved follow-up questions or to real-time fact check:

Then write articles saying they lied. It doesn't change the fact those are literally common sense basic rules.

He literally doesn't even have to have press conferences, so that doesn't make sense. Or have to call on that reporter if he chooses not to.

Or rather, he has to be open and transparent about his actions somehow. The press conference is a way we've come up with to force the president to be held accountable to that requirement.

I will cede that if he has a legitimate way of doing this that is not a press conference then that is also fine. I also believe the odds of that to be very low.

pyre, technically speaking (which is what Corrik is doing here) I don't believe there's any legal requirement for a president or their administration to hold press conferences.

There's the constitutional requirement that once per non-inauguration year he report to Congress about the State of the Union (and this can be done in writing, it doesn't even have to be a speech) Then there's some federal law requirements in this kind of sphere like FOIA and other disclosure things from agencies and campaigns and such. But press conferences? None that I know of.

This obviously does not conduct itself to transparency if followed by the letter and no further, which is the path this administration has consistency gone down, with not only this, but its previous numerous instances of shutting down or limiting disclosure that had existed under previous administrations.

Ok then, question.

Do you believe that we as a nation can have a truly democratic governing system--in both name and in spirit--if we as a people do not have any way of knowing what those in power are doing with that power?

And then a follow-up question assuming that you answer "no" to the first question: How do you propose that we discern true information from an administration that is unwilling to divulge the truth if not by having them submit to questioning?
