The editor of the Washington Post revealed an inside Washington secret Monday about President Trump: He is far more accessible to reporters than former President Obama.
Martin Baron told a conference on journalism ethics that Trump regularly makes himself available to reporters, even if it sometimes comes with criticism of the media.
.@PostBaron says Trump is not shy about giving press access: "He likes to talk to the press as much as he demonizes us." #PoynterEthicsSummit

Twitter coverage of Baron’s comments at the Poynter Journalism Ethics Summit said, “‘It’s not like we had a love-fest with the Obama administration. We tried for 2 years to get an interview. We do better with the current president in terms of access than the last one.’ – @PostBaron”
