but I do wonder about the reasoning for it. This is an official party function and there might be a handful of Lincoln Project types planning on attending. You expect them to spin coverage, not to shut it down entirely. Makes me wonder what would be going on that is so bad that spin won't suffice.

With no cameras or news coverage, there will be no need for all the speeches that are normally going on. I wonder if the WH was having trouble finding enough people willing to get up in front of cameras and stroke donnie's ego, especially if their own seats hang in the balance. Hmm.
