They put out strict guidelines for EVERYONE and that applies to reporters in the WH, who need to be 6 feet apart. So the WH setup the chairs in a manner where they can do just that. As a result, less folks fit in there. So they setup a side row for where staff and guests go. But idiot here refuses and stands in the back and getting too close to people. After doing so repeatedly, the ejected her and asked her not to return. Well, she was invited back.
What does she do? Repeatedly continue to do the same thing again, so now once again tossed.
Why take chances getting ANYONE sick? And then this increases the chance that a member of the WH could potentially get sick, and potentially the president of the United States. And when she is able to ask a question, it's like it's Acosta in disguise at times. She plays the gotcha games. :rolleyes:
I say put her somewhere where she will be forced to respect others and the social distancing.

WHCA Takes Another Swipe At OANN Reporter Chanel Rion For Breaking White House Distancing Guidelines
The White House Correspondents’ Association took a backhanded swipe Wednesday at OANN reporter Chanel Rion for continuing to break White House social distancing guidelines at press briefings.
The WHCA has sought to limit the number of outlets and reporters present at briefings during the coronavirus, establishing a seating rotation for reporters to follow. OANN was taken out of that rotation April 1 after its reporters ignored the rotation and attended briefings from the side aisles, a trend that has continued despite the punitive action.
“If you do not have an assigned seat on a given day, please do not use the press areas of the White House on that day,” the WHCA Board said in a Wednesday email to members, emphasis theirs. “We have asked the designated print pooler to work to the best of their ability to cover gaggles of administration officials. It is imperative that we keep the number of people working from the White House to an absolute minimum.”
“If you do not have an assigned seat, please do not attend briefings during this crisis and do not stand in the aisles, doing so defeats the purpose of the measures we have all taken comply with CDC guidelines and puts your colleagues at risk,” they added.
The WHCA began asking reporters to work from home if at all possible in March, around the time White House staff began issuing temperature checks to nearly everyone on the grounds.
The White House has escalated its efforts to protect President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence in recent days, announcing it would begin administering quick-result COVID-19 tests to those meeting with the executives. The press, however, was exempt from the requirement.
Both Trump and Pence have tested negative for coronavirus, with Trump being tested at least twice.
