One way is by counting press conferences. Right now, by that count, President Biden looks invisible,\u201d he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/white-house-stream-cuts-after-biden-asks-to-take-questions-video-goes-viral\">wrote<\/a> in his newsletter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn my view, reporters are right to be pushing for more Q&amp;A access, and they shouldn\u2019t let up the pressure,\u201d added Stelter. \u201cBiden should use the press conference setting to tell the public about what he\u2019s doing\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stelter also highlighted criticism of Biden from CNN White House reporter Kevin Liptak.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we await word on when President Biden will hold his first solo press conference, an analysis of the past 100 years shows he is behind his 15 most recent predecessors, who all held a solo press conference within 33 days of taking office,\u201d Liptak said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile he has taken questions from reporters on a few occasions, including during sprays and a more formal Q&amp;A session following an event in January, he has not held a formal press conference,\u201d noted the White House reporter. \u201cThat includes both a solo press conference or a 2+2 news conference during his two virtual \u2018bilateral\u2019 meetings with the leaders of Canada and Mexico.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki has stated that Biden will soon hold a solo press conference, but has refused to name a date.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe look forward to holding a full formal press conference, but in the meantime the President takes questions from the reporters covering the White House regularly, including this morning,\u201d Psaki told Stelter. \u201cAnd his focus day in and day out is on getting the pandemic under control and putting people back to work.
