The '''White House press corps''' is the group of [[journalist]]s, [[correspondent]]s, and members of the media usually assigned to the [[White House]] in [[Washington, D.C.]], to cover the [[president of the United States]], White House events, and news briefings. Its offices are located in the [[West Wing]].

The [[White House press secretary]], or a deputy, generally holds a weekday news briefing in the [[James S. Brady Press Briefing Room]], which currently seats 49 reporters. Each seat is assigned to a news gathering organization, with the most prominent organizations occupying the first two rows. Reporters who do not have an assigned seat may stand. Often a smaller group of reporters known as the "press pool" is assembled to report back to their colleagues on events where the venue would make open coverage logistically difficult.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Tau|first=Byron|date=2016-11-16|title=Q&A: What Is the Press Pool and What Does It Do?|language=en-US|work=Wall Street Journal|url=https://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2016/11/16/qa-what-is-the-press-pool-and-what-does-it-do/|access-date=2021-06-07|issn=0099-9660}}</ref> There can be different pools assembled on any given day to include a pool covering the president, vice president, first lady, and other prominent members of the staff.

When a new U.S. president is elected, some news organizations change their correspondents, most often to the reporter who had been assigned to cover the new president during the preceding campaign.

==History==
The White House press corps had their first duties in the White House in the early 1900s. An [[urban legend]] exists of [[President Theodore Roosevelt]] noticing a group of correspondents in the rain looking for sources for their stories and inviting them into the White House. Subsequent historical research outlines how reporters were able to start with small stories in the White House and then grew their presence and influence over a span of many years.<ref>{{cite web|url =http://www.whca.net/history.htm|author=Condon, George|title=History|publisher=[[White House Correspondents' Association]]|language=en-US|url-status=live|date=2014|access-date=July 31, 2023|archive-date=June 17, 2016|archive-url=https://archive.today/20160617221622/http://www.whca.net/history.htm}}</ref>

In 1977, a court ruled in ''[[Sherrill v.
