President Donald Trump is considering relocating the White House press corps to another building, potentially intensifying tensions between his administration and news organisations, according to two people familiar with the discussions who spoke to CBS News. No final decision has been made.
Former Trump strategist Steve Bannon is among the president’s outside allies who have reportedly promoted the idea. White House communications director Steven Cheung said all options remain under consideration.
The administration has also faced criticism over restrictions involving other news organisations. Trump previously considered moving reporters during his first term but abandoned the proposal.
White House journalists have maintained dedicated workspaces inside the building for more than a century.
