- Simon Ateba, the White House reporter for Today News Africa, blasted press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre for her refusal to answer his questions.
- Ateba wrote on social media that “for the past three months,” he has been trying to ask questions of the press secretary, but she has “been maltreating me and other African journalists.”
- “It’s been a disaster, a catastrophe. A real nightmare covering the Biden White House,” the African journalist told Tucker Carlson on Fox News on Friday. “Right now, I’m the voice of Africa in the U.S. But I can confirm that the level of discrimination against me and against African journalists in the White House is astounding, disgraceful.”
