Yesterday, many in the media were aghast after Sean Spicer told American Urban Radio White House correspondent April Ryan to stop shaking her head at him while he was answering her question. Along those lines, Ryan sees things as changing in the WH briefing room:

Reality check:
Obama had spectators at press briefings too. They were called the White House Press Corps. https://t.co/l6ILPWg03u

Bingo! But at least it’s nice that some are paying close attention after a break of several years.
Perfect description of the WH Press Corps during the Obama administration. https://t.co/sBoaMyMWIA

Have any WH journos asked Trump what’s “enchanted” him the most about being president yet?
