In a tense exchange, the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) has responded to criticisms from Joe Biden's spokesman, Ian Sams, regarding the media's coverage of a report on allegations that President Biden mishandled classified documents. The administration accused some media entities of promoting inaccuracies and misrepresenting the findings of the federal investigation led by Mr. Hur, leading to a false narrative. In a letter to WHCA President Kelly O'Donnell and other members, Sams emphasized the importance of addressing significant errors in coverage that misstate the investigation's findings, leading to misinformed questions in the White House briefing room filled with erroneous information. The WHCA has criticized the Biden administration's letter concerning the coverage as 'inappropriate.'
