Breitbart Denied Permanent Congressional Press Passes

• http://www.dcclothesline.com, by Tim Brown

According to the Washington Examiner:

The website has been granted daily passes by the Capitol Hill standing committee, which oversees press credentials, but has been unsuccessful in obtaining official permanent access.

The committee voted Tuesday morning in favor of "tabling the application and discontinuing temporary credentials without any extension," according to the Daily Beast.

Breitbart has enjoyed greater access at the White House, having published an exclusive interview with Trump and the site's White House correspondent is regularly called on to ask questions at the daily press briefing with press secretary Sean Spicer.
