The White House Correspondents Association told its members in an email last week that just the White House press pool was allowed, with other outlets barred from the White House grounds unless the UFC gives them press credentials, The Washington Post reports.
Jang also said that the UFC was only allowing a “very limited number” of journalists to be on the South Lawn during the fight. Other journalists would have to watch the fight on viewing screens at the Ellipse Park outside the White House or at the JW Marriott hotel. Reporters won’t be able to access their workspaces, the White House briefing room, or “Pebble Beach,” an area on the lawn used for TV appearances during the fight.
The move is very unusual, as the White House has historically handled press credentialing for larger events. But a circus on the White House lawn is also unprecedented, with taxpayers footing the still untold bill to entertain an audience full of Trump’s friends, the UFC’s guests, and military personnel who have to pay their own way. The whole thing is an expensive spectacle for Trump’s birthday.
