The New White House Press Briefing Room

Check out articles on the new briefing room here, here, here and here.

Also, download a .pdf that includes all sorts of details on the new press room (and a history of the old ones).

One WH reporter writes in to share some thoughts:

i saw it for the first time today and was generally pleased.

the new seats in the briefing room are so much more comfortable than the old ones

also, the workspaces don’t have drawers under the counters

each workstation has its own power outlets, phone jacks, ethernet jacks — even several three-pronged jacks for the “mult box.”
