Josh Earnest est le nouveau porte-parole de la Maison Blanche



Le porte-parole de la Maison Blanche est confronté chaque jour à une horde de journalistes et sa marge d'erreur est particulièrement restreinte. Pression vous dites? Il a débuté par une touche d'humour. Il remplace Jay Carney.

 "When Josh Earnest, who on Monday will officially become President Barack Obama’s press secretary, came to the briefing room Friday, he was prepared to talk about a new White House initiative to boost the populations of bees, birds, bats and other pollinators. Asked about the program, he tried out some new material. “When I walked out here today I knew I’d be handling a range of sensitive issues,” Earnest cracked. “I didn’t know I was going to be talking about the birds and the bees.”

 Groans filled the press room. “That was pretty good, right?” he asked. “We’ll get these guys on some better material here,” he added, turning to press staffers in the room.

Earnest, 39, is relatively unknown outside of Washington, but respected and well-liked by White House colleagues and journalists alike. He’s considered a passionate defender of the president but also someone who will advocate for more press access and the smoother flow of information.
