No cameras = no proof of what they said to show they were lying.

Audio recordings ok?
The briefings are just spin fests anyway, fruitless attempts to nail Jello to the wall.The real news comes from the leaks, and those are legion. Plus, the leaks are what gets under Lardbutt's skin because they become the day's headlines, and the next day's tweets. I still have confidence the press will dig and dig and dig at Lardbutt and his shady past until the fat slob eventually snaps.

You have an awful lot of press briefings in the USA. It seems a good idea to reduce these somewhat and/or reduce the time for each one.
A world leader should not spend a lot of time in press conferences. I noticed in the UK such events are rare but it depends on the situation.

Daily White House communications through the Press Secretary, to the media, has been how our Presidents have kept the public informed for decades now... oh fuck this. You'll make any excuse for this goddamn regime.
Let's be clear, they are getting rid of briefings because they can't handle the briefings. This isn't some sort of "Well, briefings are just antiquainted these day" decision. It is "Donnie! They are grilling me out there!"Let's be clear. These are not informative briefings.
They are spin.
No reporter needs it to write about what the government is doing.

The press never references 'a spokesperson for' any ministry or the PM's office?
Huh. Seems it would make your government pretty opaque.
I'd be willing to bet you guys have about as many press briefings as we do. Probably more, if you include traditions like the guy showing his red briefcase to the press when he submits the budget...
