The White House communications staff regularly sends officials to appear on Fox News host Jeanine Pirro’s show because they know President Trump will watch, The Washington Post reported Thursday.
Pirro’s Saturday night show, “Justice with Judge Jeanine,” is a favorite of Trump’s, and he tunes in or records the program every week.
The aides also appear on the show to stop Trump from calling in, according to The Post.
“Someone has to be on the show every week,” one official told the newspaper.
Aides also said that Pirro and Trump talk regularly, including about special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russian election interference and his frustrations with Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
The staffers added that they sometimes schedule officials to discuss policies on Fox News shows because Trump “will listen more when it is on TV.”
