The White House allowed press secretary Sean Spicer to be photographed Monday at his off-camera press briefing. It’s a loosening of recent restrictions on the spokesman’s daily briefing with reporters. Previously, media organizations were not allowed to take photos of the spokesman or broadcast video from the briefing.
“Putting sketch artists out of business now,” Spicer said as he started the briefing, with cameras clicking.
The joke was a reference to CNN sending its courtroom sketch artist to cover his briefing last week.
Time magazine reporter Zeke Miller said the change was a product of negotiations with the White House Correspondents’ Association.

This is so silly and juvenile.
