How Karoline Leavitt Debased Her Job Karoline Leavitt's tenure as White House press secretary has been marked by a disturbing trend in modern American politics: the degradation of the role of the press secretary into a mere prop for an administration's propaganda machine.
In most administrations, the press secretary serves as a vital link between the White House and the public, providing crucial information and context to reporters who shape the national conversation.
However, under Trump, this traditional function has been rendered obsolete by an emphasis on spinning reality rather than reporting it. Leavitt's own approach to her job reflects this twisted priority.
