3/ Instead, I preferred covering agencies like EPA, Treasury, Pentagon and State. You not only interviewed policy makers there, but you could meet with relevant WH officials like the National Security Adviser, who knew your work. Also key members of Congress in your issue area. — PolitiTweet.org

2/ Related: when I was a Washington beat reporter long ago, for 18 years, I twice turned down the White House beat because you were mostly trapped in a briefing room with little access to policy makers. And this was in the era of decent press secretaries of both parties. — PolitiTweet.org

4/ At least back then, the White House beat was prestigious - especially on TV - but not as journalistically satisfying as covering the agencies or the Hill. // — PolitiTweet.org
