White House Press Secretary Removed After Gaffe, Online Backlash And Envoy Resignation
White House Press Secretary Katie Zachariah has been removed from her post just five days into the job following intense social media backlash over her debut press briefing. During her maiden appearance, Zachariah mistakenly referred to Donald Trump as her husband before correcting the slip-up while answering a question about balancing work and family. The briefing also featured an announcement that the Trump administration had asked Kimberly Guilfoyle, the US ambassador to Greece, to resign. Although Trump praised her performance as excellent, her removal came hours after he advised her to reconsider the position.
