<p>The White House received over 7,400 new media requests over the past 24 hours, a White House official shared with The Daily Wire on Wednesday.</p>
<p>The thousands of new media requests came in after White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-admin-welcomes-new-media-into-white-house-press-corps">announced on Tuesday</a> that the White House is making room for “new media” in the press room, allowing nontraditional, news-related content producers to directly question the press secretary and other administration officials.</p>
<p>Leavitt, who called on the press to focus on sharing the truth about the Trump administration, gave her first press briefing on Tuesday, during which she announced a “new media seat” for nontraditional media, as well as a link for bloggers, podcasters, social media influencers, and others to apply to for White House press access.</p>
<p>“We welcome independent journalists, podcasters, social media influencers, and content creators to apply for credentials to cover this White House,&#8221; she said.</p>

<p>“The Trump White House will speak to all media outlets and personalities, not just the legacy media who are seated in this room, because according to recent polling from Gallup, Americans’ trust in mass media has fallen to a record low,” Leavitt said.</p>
<p>“Millions of Americans, especially young people, have turned from traditional television outlets and newspapers to consume their news from podcasts, blogs, social media, and other independent outlets,” she continued. “It’s essential to our team that we share President Trump’s message everywhere and adapt this White House to the new media landscape in 2025.”</p>
<p>Leavitt also said on Tuesday that the White House will restore the media credentials of over 400 journalists who lost access during the Biden administration.</p>
