Trump’s new White House press secretary, Katie Zacharia, keeps first briefing short

What the coverage shows

Most outlets focus on Katie Zacharia’s first briefing as brief and rough, with NBC News, the New York Times, the Independent and the South China Morning Post all highlighting the short duration, few questions and stumbles. The BBC says its reporter was in the room and singles out the moment she mentioned Kimberly Guilfoyle, while the Washington Post appears first on her debut and later on questions about her background and bar credentials. The Guardian US is an outlier, turning the event into a broader opinionated profile rather than a straight account of the briefing.
