Sunday on the Fox News Channel’s MediaBuzz, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki joined host Howard Kurtz for an exit interview that, along with the news of the day (abortion and Ukraine), touched on media access to President Biden, rumors about her move to MSNBC, and Twitter being a liberal echo-chamber.

Kurtz ended the first of two blocks by bringing up the fact that reporters are often unable to ask Biden questions:

Let me circle back, to coin a phrase, to the message question. Now I know your standard answer is that Biden takes lots and lots of questions after events, and let’s just agree to disagree that that’s a good level of media access. With the President holding so few news conferences and doing very rarely sit-down interviews, isn’t he surrendering a key part of the bully pulpit?
