WATCH: Multiple Reporters Team Up To Grill KJP Over Biden’s Refusal To Take Questions
As Thursday’s briefing came to a close, journalists challenged Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House press secretary, over their restricted opportunity to pose questions to President Joe Biden. As she was leaving the briefing, reporters confronted Jean-Pierre about the limited press access during visits by foreign leaders to the president.
“But he doesn’t answer questions!” one reported said.
“That’s not true, he’s answered questions,” Jean-Pierre responded.
“The press is always shouted down when we’re in the Oval Office,” one reporter said.
“They always shout at us to get out,” another reporter said as the briefing turned into a media frenzy.
The Biden administration has turned heads with their constant refusal to answer questions from the press.

Jean-Pierre says the press is allowed to ask questions "every time a head of state visits."
Multiple reporters correct her, saying Biden "never answers questions," "we get yelled at," and "the press is always shouted down." KJP laughs nervously pic.twitter.com/HqQqub0kRa
