Joining me. On friday when sean spicer was holding a press gaggle, he blocked reporters from cnn and other outlets from attending. A move that was surprising for even the most experienced. Cnn said we will keep reporting regardless. Saturday, prumesident trump sai he will skip the White House Correspondent dinner. You see him there in 2011. He hasnt been since. He is doubling down on the idea that you cant trust us. Hes offering a new track from his broken record of media attacks including this tweet e he says Fake News Media knowingly doesnt tell the truth. Its a great danger to our country.

But is that par for the course for a new administration . And the white house getting down to Business Today with executive actions including quitting tpp, a Major Campaign promise, and attempting to reboot its relationship with the press by putting out a kinder, gentler sean spicer. But we may not have seen the last of the socalled alternative facts from the white house. Lets get right to cnns jim sciutto with some breaking news for us tonight. Jim, good evening to you. Congressman mike pompeo was confirmed today to lead the cia. What can we expect from the director . Well, listen, hes the nominee. Hes a republican, but he has the support of many republicans and democrats.
