MAGA influencer Steve Bannon announced that his War Room had been granted official access to the White House briefing room.
On his Tuesday broadcast, Bannon said that co-host Natalie Winters would fill the White House correspondent role.
"Natalie's taking on a new assignment for the War Room," Bannon said. "Not simply going to be co-hosting our executive editor and chief researcher, she's also going to take on the responsibilities of our White House correspondent."
"I know Brian Glenn's over there for Real America's Voice, but are you guys getting nothing but stink eye today?" he asked Winters.
"The people that I'm about 50 feet away from are necessarily too happy that the War Room now has me being obviously a voice, not just in terms of asking questions, but I think sort of observing the mainstream press corps," Winters replied. "When you just look behind me, you can see how far we've come, so thank you from the bottom of my heart."
"I mean, two years ago, three years ago, we were being smeared as the number one spreaders of misinformation," she continued. "You were in prison not too long ago."
