JFK35 - A podcast by the JFK Library Foundation


Apr 20, 2023

President John F. Kennedy was the first president to take live televised questions from the press on a regular basis and he would provide the model for what would become the modern television presidency. In this episode, we’ll take a look at Kennedy's relationship with the media at news conferences and have a conversation with members of today’s White House press corps about how different presidents have approached their relationships with the press once in office.
