Sean Spicer’s time as the White House press secretary was known for being contentious and confrontational – and now Donald Trump’s former spokesman says it may be time to do away with the briefing entirely.
Spicer, who was parodied by Melissa McCarthy on “Saturday Night Live” said the daily briefing has become “a show.” He made his comments to C-SPAN on Sunday.
“The Department of Defense and others don’t always have a daily briefing of an on-camera sense,” Spicer said. “And I think a morning gaggle and, you know, selected days where you do an on-camera one is worth it. But the briefing has become more of a show than an outlet of information for the media.”
