<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">WASHINGTON—The White House Correspondents’ Association on Wednesday unveiled its new seating chart for the White House briefing room, giving The Daily Wire a seat in the room. </span></p>
<p>The Daily Wire was one of a handful of news outlets granted a seat in the redesigned room. In a letter to members of the White House press corps, the White House <span style="font-weight: 400;">Correspondent’s Association</span> said that the new chart took into account the emerging digital media landscape</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mary Margaret Olohan became The Daily Wire’s first-ever White House correspondent just over a year ago, following the inauguration of President Donald Trump. Her assumption of that mantle marked the beginning of The Daily Wire’s Washington, D.C. operations, which continued with the opening of a D.C. Bureau in May and the addition of several new reporters.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are surprisingly few seats in the briefing room, and reporters without set spots must arrive early and stand in the aisles, often for hours on end. Olohan has become a fixture of White House press briefings, asking questions from the standing room only area in the aisles of the room. </span></p>
<p>Just this week, Olohan was seen breaking the news to <span style="font-weight: 400;">President Trump in the Oval Office that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem had issued a requirement that all federal immigration agents wear body cams. Earlier this year, Olohan broke the news that the Department of Justice was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-trump-doj-considering-gun-ban-for-transgenders">considering a gun ban</a> for transgender-identifying individuals, exclusively <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/president-trump-to-sign-executive-to-keep-men-out-of-womens-sports">reported</a> that Trump was signing an executive order to keep men out of women&#8217;s sports, and last month that <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-vice-president-vance-to-headline-march-for-life">Vice President J.D. Vance was set to speak at the March for Life</a>. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Among the other media outlets granted a seat in the room for the first time were Semafor, Axios, and NOTUS. Some outlets, including The Daily Beast and Buzzfeed, had their seats taken away from them.</span></p>
<p>In a letter to members of the White House press corps, the White House Correspondents&#8217; Association said that the new chart took into account the emerging digital media landscape, including newsletters.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A permanent spot is both a testament to the quality of The Daily Wire’s White House coverage and a guarantee that this coverage will continue unabated.</span></p>
