The White House press conference has always been a frustrating spectacle, with reporters trying to pry information from government officials who do everything in their power to avoid sharing too much information. But these press conferences are typically appreciated because of their symbolic value -- they reaffirm the democratic idea that the government must answer to the people.
That symbolic value has changed under Trump, who uses press conferences to stage high profile fights with the press and mobilize his base.

REEEEEEEEEEE

Its clear that both Trump and CNN are enjoying the drama.
Get CNN those fat checks

The fact that we consider anyone “winning” or losing a press conference or any political argument shows we have become too partisan and the largest percentage of that responsibility falls on the media. There is little to no difference between political coverage and the coverage of a sporting event these days. The only big difference is sports fan are less hostile to one another...sadly.
You had me until you started playing the blame game. The responsibility falls to the culture, and by that I mean the media, the politicians, and a general public that responds to this sort of 'Who's the winner? Who's the loser?' binary thinking. Gotta win every given moment!
thissucksallover fair points...that being said, there is a very clear correlation between the advent of 24 hrs news media and the current political atmosphere. Polarized and siloed view points constantly getting their confirmation bias. IMO this lays mostly at the feet of the news media for playing to our partisan nature. One could argue these always existed and it is simply technology that allows for quicker access to this confirmation bias. Regardless the media plays a significant role imo.
@@Mypromiselive Something had to foster that culture though. Media outlets know that they make the most money when they present these issues as an "us vs. them" dichotomy. The more people see this sort of coverage regularly, the more this culture grows. Obviously media is simply capitalizing on an inherent trait in human nature (tribalism) that likes to see things presented this way, but only one of these things can change substantially enough--and quickly enough--to make a difference: the media. Human psychology isn't something we can just decide to reform, humans are always going to think this way; humans suddenly shifting away from tribalist instincts would be a major evolutionary step in the human psyche, and that's not something that's going to happen any time soon.
The thing we CAN change is the way we present these issues, and that falls directly on the media. Capitalizing on humanity's proclivity toward ingroup and outgroup mechanics has tossed rocket fuel on this already incendiary human trait. Constantly catering to it has given it a platform and power. Sure, the issue has existed since the dawn of humankind, but the rise of inflammatory and highly partisan media outlets has given that instinct the power to throw our entire governmental process into the meltdown we see today. Even if the solution here is to stop paying so much attention to media or to take all of it with a grain of salt, the root of the problem still lies with the media's exploitation of the tribal nature of the human psyche. And the media are the only people who have the power to make these changes, because they're the ones who are making the decisions to present information in this format in the first lace.
Brian Bethea they didn’t get it...glad you did. Good points
Yeah I doubt we would be so partisan if the democratic party's agenda didn't revolve around open borders and socialistic policies. But hey keep pushing that garbage if you want. (Duckkkkk, and cover) 😂
I find it hilarious how most comments are comments that talk about the comments section
Speaking of which, where did all the bots go? There was tons a few weeks ago. Maybe I shouldn't jinx it.
Have you seen how bad they’ve gotten? No surprise some civil people finally noticed.
just like ur comment..... HA
meta meta comment? No, this is a meta meta meta comment.
i missed you. this series is so good, the relevant current events mixed with that unique brad of humor. i love it.
True.
Vox is brave to leave the comments on when they post a video about Trump
I mean......I feel like an obviously liberally biased organisation such as Vox isn't really afraid of bad comments because 95% of their viewer-base agrees with them.
@@peanutismint sure... maybe... or more likely a free press channel would look bad silencing voices on their video. Everyone has the freedom of speech, even if that speech consists for alternative facts and truth isn't truthisms
@@peanutismint lol you're implying that a youtube comments section isn't going to be bad? you new here?
indeed
@@alexs1640 Freedom of speech only applies to the government not being able to silence you, private companies have no such obligation. UA-cam and Vox can absolutely silence anyone for any reason, unless explicitly banned by the Civil Rights Act.
As I am from Germany I might be able to give different perspective on this.
The press conferences are organized quite different in Germany. First it is organized as an association composed of different news outlets and they decide who they invite to question, they decide what to put on the agenda and who should ask the next question. Usually there is not only the main press secretary but press secretaries from different ministries to answer specific questions. It is also no uncommon for the invited to hand out written statements. They are quite lengthy as well. Usually about 45 min to an hour. Regarding cameras it is not common to show the journalists. This takes away a lot of the drama.
On the downside they are really boring and not many people like to watch them.
@K4nler langweilig aber gut... ist besser als entertaining und Trump
If many people don't watch it then what's the point 🤔
Chris Willis Even tough it is shown on TV it is more geared towards journalists than the general public.
Ymi_Yugy what perspective did u provide other than boring us with what y’all actually do?
@@Fifthelement203
I've seen some excerpts from White House press conferences myself, in particular about foreign policy and IMHO some of the flaws outlined in the video are not only due to certain characters attending but are rooted in the way the format is setup.
I wanted to share how a different setup might change the situation.
_a small loan of a million dollars_
I remember that...
How are you top comment
"Self made"
actually was 400 million, w/ tax evasion
he took a million dollars and change New York skyline forever building one of the greatest buildings in New York
Blah, blah, blah....... this video is so boring.
Think I'll go watch a White House press conference.
So you go out of your way to find videos that you dont like for the sake of getting triggered?
@@3dpaper - No, I go out of my way to review purported opposing points of view to see if I actually disagree with them. In this case, agreeing/disagreeing is irrelevant, but the video is so boring, I'd rather watch a White House press conference. 😂😂😂
@@QiBoy777 lol triggered snow flake.running back into the echo chamber
@@3dpaper - 😂😂😂 Nothing "triggered" about being bored. But you create whatever reality you want to live in, okay? (Even if it's not the real one) Whatevs.
@@QiBoy777 ??? who are you? why are you in my notifications? i just wanted a pizza coupons
Eric Bischoff did a Ted Talk on this. News/Politics (they're on the same team) is a giant wrestling pay-per view now. It's designed to make you angry or reaffirm your beliefs but NEVER to make you think. Cheer for your wrestler and put your credit card # down, or in this instance, vote and pay your taxes.
And you’ll eat your breakfast bowl of fruity loop lies with a smile on your face! Smile for daddy Trump! Exceellllent
Crazy to think that this series is in its fourth season. Just wanted to say that I have absolutely loved all of these videos. The state of American media in the 21st century is always something that has fascinated me. I also gained a completely new perspective on the White House press briefing I had never even thought of. Hope you can keep up the good work!
My favorite soyboy has come back
I genuinely look forward to this guy's videos; please don't stop!!!
he has his own youtube channel now
Wrestling is just D&D for jocks. Change my mind.
You're right
I say its Male soap opera
I like to watch wrestling every now and again, and I agree with your sentiment. It's fake and choreographed, but the physical display of lifting hundreds of pounds or performing precision acrobatic techniques without causing extreme harm to themselves or their opponents is entertaining. Of course, this is strictly my opinion.
andrewesquivel Wait, this isn't louder with crowder!
I'd compare it more to theatre. In D&D nothing is rehearsed as much as, planned by the DM. The act of making up a fictional character/persona is comparable, but there's more fanfare in wrestleing, and D&D isn't as much dependant on violence.
Trump always wins press conferences because he hogs the good controller and everyone else has to use the MadCatz one every time
Lol, thanks for making me laugh and abating my seething rage towards trump.
With the mushy buttons
And the short cord
Did you even watch the footage? The liberal media is out of control.
okay mr. peepee

This video was.... Suprisingly neutral.
Nearly spit out my tea when Vox put a yellow circle labelled "good guy" around Donald Trump
This was great to see vox play one straight. I think they complimented Sarah Huckabee with the wrestling sign. "Trump finally invested in something good!" Well done VOX.

agree 100%. news channels should have stopped going to briefings after the “enemy of the people” comment.
why give liars a microphone?
Not a Trump fan, but they ARE the enemy of the people. Big news media have done horrendous things like support wars and proxy wars. Just have a look into how embedded media influenced US voters to support the war in iraq and how the media knew about the lies of WMDs, yet kept echoing it. Support small media companies without agendas instead.
everything is wrestling
I'm gonna help you out Dani, A mass majority of things can be explained in an analogy in wrestling.
(Except for TOUHOU. If you can't find a perfect Analogy in wrestling Touhou is your other answer.)
How Trump wins press conferences ?? Simple cos i speak the truth.
Our government is so far removed from "we the people", that is seems likely our Constitutional Democracy is truly in peril.
What we need is complete and absolute truth regarding every last thing our government has done "in our name" from its inception up to today. Hold nothing back, let us know what these representatives of "we the people" have been doing in our name. Only then can we truly hold the crooks accountable and start to fix this mess.
Nice first sentence, shame the rest is basically a work of fictional hopes and dreams that will never become reality with a "first past the post" system... And since the only people who can change it are the ones in power at the odds of flipping a coin, just... Won't happen... Unless...
The people stand-up and force reps to listen to a 90% majority only with their power under threat making an open field better odds then keep the current system all assuming we survive this administration as a representative democracy...
Nah.
Wont happen..
I was just thinking this exact thought while scrolling the comments. If both sides could be forgiving enough to be vulnerable with each other it might work out but it’s just not the culture they’re in
LOL Leftists want to remove the electoral college instead of understanding its purpose.
@You Know Oversimplification isn't an improvement.
He wins because he plays to his base, sticks to what he knows and ACTUALLY speaks like a person. Everyone else has been too busy riding the hate train to be even remotely competitive in any other arena besides Trump-hating.
"I would refer you to the postal service"
It is amazing to me how hypocritical the show is and how you are. Usain. It's not okay that he refers CNN as the enemy of the people. But you just called Trump a villain. You cannot be upset by someone doing something but being okay as long as it's your side doing it. This is why one day you will end up becoming the biggest joke of the century. And it's all on you

@@Lucas747G Only citizens with a decent intelligence level should be able to vote. Whether you agree with it or not, the 2016 election result relied heavily on the ignorance of the people.
Carlos, I’m glad for these videos that you make. They highlight not only what’s wrong with our current administration, but also the way that the media covers it. It reminds me that while a free media is a guardrail of democracy, we shouldn’t so blindly think of it as free of fault-it should also be criticized.
Could you only imagine what the right and fox news would of said if obama acted like trump
How much I missed Carlos. Happy about the new season. Keep it coming :)
She’s annoying
Its dramatic
I likened Trump's rallies (of which I went to one) back in 2015 as chances for political supporters to act like wrestling fans. I have never been proven so right. The one thing you need to focus on is that fact for his supporters it's not about politics. For them it's about having fun. Being the ignorant people they are, they don't have the critical thinking skills to get off the ignorance train when Trump drives it straight to the stupid station. It's like cheering for the Undertaker. He's the bad guy you like to cheer for, because you are hoping he puts on a good show of his villainy, just so you can see the hero win in the end. Hell, I love the Undertaker...however I also realize what his character is supposed to represent. He is after all...THE UNDERTAKER.
CARLOS, YOU'RE FINALLY BACK
I need you're input on CLIMATE CHANGE TOO
I absolutely love your work, please never stop doing what you do. We need more people like you.
Why are there always trump supporters in the comments of these videos as if theyve never watched a vox video in their life
They're dyslexic, they thought the channel was "Fox" not "Vox"
The Goddamn Batman I’m a republican but I admire the European system. Instead raising taxes to only help certain people, why not give everyone the same basic services. This is why I support Trump because he was right, the working people were forgotten which is shown by the Obama admin, all his bills he passed were for poorer people. If a democrat came and did a universal health care and insurance policy, I’d be all for it, but they won’t do it. Ik u gonna think it’s stupid because it’s not all liberal, but this is my best shot
@@mlgprussian7115 You should check out Bernie Sanders if it's universal healthcare you care about. He is basically our only contender for president in 2020 that is for universal healthcare. I'll be voting for him when the time comes and I will do so happily

Hey Vox! I love your content and method of display, and I even recently submitted a survey for you guys, but the reason I consume your content is so that I can use it. However, I am unable to use information that I believe was tainted through a view of partisanship, which is very disappointing because I know that much of the information presented is accurate. It is hard for me to draw upon Vox as a credible source to someone with a polarized view of your content. I realize that nowadays it is becoming increasingly difficult to portray the current political system system in a positive light, but attempts and considerations for the viewer to see both sides would establish a sense of validity.
Of course, I don’t know if this is the goal you’re striving towards; Vox could be only a method to promote leftist ideas and beliefs, which is fine, as long as it is portrayed and defined as such.
Anyways, I still enjoy the content, I only wish it could be of more use to me.
This is the best series on Vox. Great guests and great commentary. Thank you Carlos.
LOL a CNN hat. The leftist equivalent to the MAGA hat.

Vox criticized less press briefings from Trump, I wonder how they feel about Biden right now who does even less and has a predetermined list of questions
Okay but that Cena X Undertaker build up was exciting.
Who is this guy and why did he disappear from vox? He was all over my UA-cam last year and has vanished from vox completely.
The sound was poorly edited in this, that “first blood” almost blew out my eardrums since I had to turn up the volume to hear the gusts.
Ok, but can we at least start admitting Trump isn't as dumb as we think? The biggest mistake you can do is underestimate your opponent.
Can we stop looking at fellow citizens as opponent's and instead as fellow Americans
I like how both guests were filmed with the motion picture cameras used in the Eisenhowers press conference in 1955.
He doesn't win, he's just a bully and intelligent people know it. I just hope Americans are more intelligent than we have been depicted in some films.
P Brown hope is a key word.😪
I loved the inclusion of experts in this episode
I guess his actual win is getting media organizations to frame press conferences as something that can be won.
Does anyone remember when we had a president that allowed reporters to finish their sentences and spoke to people with kindness and respect?
...Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Who are you talking about? Bathhouse Barry?
We should have PMQs, in Britain they have a session of Parliament where members of all parties get to ask questions directly to the Prime Minister, it happens every Wednesday.
Oh man that opening scene lmao
im so glad that fight cage thing didnt last the whole video, it was really distracting

No one watches the White House press conference anymore... it is worthless unless you enjoy our leaders not answer questions.
Trump’s racist red hats
Sad
Trump talk for morons
Trump the hate monger
Did you like the fake Obama White House press briefing so one strand of evidence that Trump is racist that is not complete conjecture keep supporting the people that take advantage of you
Why is this video 12 and a half minutes long? Could've been 3 seconds. "He doesn't." *end video*
I lean more libertarian on many issues... I see the back and forth as a mediocre distraction from the real problems we face as a nation. even with my political position I still enjoy watching Vox videos so I have an idea of what the left thinks of the right because unless we can have a dialogue we will never make progress. I feel like we're in a shitstorm of meta news. Bringing up news in the news about the news is just becoming convoluted. We see this on both sides. It's like we're attacking a strawman while our nation suffers.
@The Goddamn Batman I believe you're goddamn right Mr Batman. Lol
"I lean more libertarian on many issues..." *sounds the self-proclaimed "neutral" intellectual alarm*
You'll learn a lot listening to different media broadcasts, especially in different languages, Arabic, Russian, Japanese, Mandarin, Japanese, etc.
I like how it's all cut up and edited nicely so that I only get a left leaning biased report. Thank you vox
Preston Phillips it’s opinion...just like Fox News.
*One of the most annoying worst videos I've ever seen from Vox.*
Love the use of the classic Unreal announcer. :)
Is it Unreal or Dota 2 or are they the same?
Question: Do you think this is the 'bumbling of an administration' or 'a calculated strategy'? I think it has always been the latter and it's the underestimation of this group that will give them victory. Look into anything they do and you'll find nothing is without purpose (+some crazy), and therefore, part of a plan that is clearly working.. Great vid, hope people think it over..

Why at 12:02 did you use an empty ring?
it's funny how the whole video reflects on how dramatic the white house briefings are while being so dramatic and childish its self, the WWE jokes and "bad guy" "good guy" graphics diminish the value of the fact that are presented by the experts. Vox, when are you going to become an actual news reporting site, I mostly agree with the core points you bring forward in your videos, but I must be honest, this channel is diverging slowly from what it used to be.
hope I was clear, I'd really enjoy seeing a response as I'm trying to keep my hopes up but what I have just discussed and the terrible reporting most of the companies you own do. are make my trust and admiration for your work fade away.
@The Goddamn Batman I guess the whole video is a good analogy at best, definitely not a good way to report facts, especially when you're so biased
The definition of a decadent society is one that values entertainment over information. To be amused rather than informed is the desire of a people who have abdicated their responsibility to supervise and evaluate those who rule in their name. A free people who want to stay that way must be vigilant. They must demand accountability and straight answers about their interests and how the government is serving them.
The thing about a republic is, when you no longer deserve it, you won't have it. Do you think we, as a people are holding up our obligation?
Trump is the good guy, follow the legal process to enter this country. A doctor from South Africa has roughly 1/3 chance to be allowed here legally yet any uneducated fool who can climb a wall or swim can enter through the border? That's not fair, and if we want to withhold our fairness we need to make this right.
When politics tag become drama tag.
oh wow Trump is terrible
Trumps is the BEST!!!
The press watch is pretty funny. Its like seeing too kids fightning over who gets the last piece of candy. The candy in this case is will the president ever take any fault in his actions
Or you could just be WRONG, Vox.
@The Goddamn Batman OK. I DO SEE dem morons as evil.
This is Awesome!! You got CNN cutting promos and The White House bringing the chairs to press briefings 😂😂😂
I'm surprised someone Didn't call Donald Trump "The Supreme Leader"
Hey, who come from Taylor’s college who preparing the social sciences?👋
Undermine the ritual. Stop asking questions, and make statements. Force the WH to defensively respond.
Quick fact: as a child, Donald Trump got his skill of the spectacle from his mother, who valued it highly.
