Karoline Leavitt is back behind a podium at Donald Trump’s convention in Dallas, but some reports say she was not included in a media briefing prior to going on stage. In comments attributed to Leavitt, she contrasts the experience of speaking to a large audience with the experience of working in what she describes as a briefing setting for journalists.
According to The Independent, Leavitt’s remarks take place Thursday as the convention continues. Yahoo UK News carries the same account, indicating the story is circulating across outlets with a similar framing. Both sources emphasize Leavitt’s presence at the podium and the claim that she is left “in the dark” at the event, though neither provides extensive additional detail about the cause or specifics of the briefing exclusion.
