Are they exclusive or are you just happening to fall for the press' narrative of having an exclusive. Here's a hint, every paper gets an exclusive if they ask. Just at different times.

Also it's a far cry from a general press briefing, which serves to inform the public of what the government by the people intends to do next. By the people - not by the parts of the people the government happens to like.
