Washington D.C. - The first three White House 'influencer briefings,' an initiative launched by White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, have drawn scrutiny due to the political leanings of the attendees. An analysis of the guest lists reveals a significant concentration of individuals with right-leaning perspectives.
These briefings are intended to engage online personalities and content creators on important policy matters, providing them with information and opportunities to ask questions. However, the composition of the guest lists has raised concerns about the administration's approach to engaging with diverse voices.
Critics argue that the selection process appears to favor individuals aligned with conservative viewpoints, potentially limiting the scope of perspectives presented during these briefings. The White House has yet to comment on the specific criteria used for selecting attendees, leaving some to question the inclusivity of this outreach effort. This comes as the White House continues to engage in an ongoing campaign to reach younger voters.
