The Briefing Room Podium May Soon Have a New Occupant

Katie Zacharia has been asked by President Trump to serve as the next White House press secretary. She is a commentator and currently advises the president's media company on communications. The offer has been extended; whether she has accepted was not part of the report. If she takes the post, she would become the voice of the administration to the reporters who gather daily in the West Wing's briefing room, one of the most visible positions in the capital.
