White House Launches News Site to Promote Pro-Trump Messaging

White House Wire, styled after the Drudge Report, aims to bypass critical outlets and centralize pro-administration narratives.

Overview

  • White House Wire, now live at WH.gov/wire, aggregates pro-Trump news stories in a bulletin-board format inspired by the Drudge Report.
  • The site features links to articles from Fox News, Washington Times, Newsweek, and Trump's ABC News interview, with a ticker reading '24/7 FOURTY-SEVEN.'
  • A White House official described the platform as a 'one-stop shop' for supporters to access 'real news' in a shareable format.
  • The launch follows the administration's history of restricting access for critical outlets, such as the Associated Press, over disputes like the 'Gulf of Mexico' naming controversy.
  • This initiative represents a broader strategy to sidestep traditional media channels and consolidate favorable coverage of the president's agenda.
