Trumps promise made and promise kept
President Donald Trump’s press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed to a New York Times (NYT) reporter that it is administration policy for officials to not respond to any reporters who have pronouns in their email.
According to the NYT2 , Trump administration officials have repeatedly ignored their reporters’ requests for comment because they have pronouns in their email signatures. Alongside Leavitt, Katie Miller, a senior adviser at the Department of Government Efficiency, declined to answer another NYT reporter’s email after they reportedly included their pronouns in their signature.

“Any reporter who chooses to put their preferred pronouns in their bio clearly does not care about biological reality or truth and therefore cannot be trusted to write an honest story,” Leavitt said in a separate comment to NYT after telling a reporter that they “do not respond” to inquiries with pronouns in the signature “[a]s a matter of policy.”
“As a matter of policy, we do not respond to reporters with pronouns in their bios,” she wrote, according to the outlet.
A similar situation, according to the NYT, also happened to Matt Berg, a correspondent at Crooked Media, when he included his pronouns in his email signature.
Berg wanted to test the theory that the White House doesn’t respond to reporters who include emails in their signature, so when reaching out for comment, he signed off with “(he/him)” by his name, the NYT reported. Miller, who the email was directed at, responded by reiterating the practice towards reporters with pronouns in their signatures, the outlet reported.
Berg told the NYT that he couldn’t believe the response.
“I find it baffling that they care more about pronouns than giving journalists accurate information, but here we are,” Berg told the NYT. (SEE Related Editorial 04: Karoline Leavitt Announces Major Shakeup To White House Press Corps read here)
The NYT also weighed in on its own reporting, calling the administration’s policy “baffling.”
“Evading tough questions certainly runs counter to transparent engagement with free and independent press reporting,” a Times spokesperson said in a statement.
“But refusing to answer a straightforward request to explain the administration’s policies because of the formatting of an email signature is both a concerning and baffling choice, especially from the highest press office in the U.S. government.” END
WH Preps Another Big Shakeup in Press Briefing Room
The White House is preparing to shake up the James S. Brady press briefing room in its latest move to upend the power of the press corps, an official confirmed to the Daily Caller.
The White House is planning to change the seating arrangement of its briefing room, which has long been dictated by the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA), to include new media, podcasters and social media influencers, Axios first reported. The seating arrangement is currently restricted to certain outlets approved by the WHCA, but the White House is hoping to restructure the room “based on metrics more reflective of how media is consumed today.”

Was Thomma a White House Correspondents' Association Award winning journalist covering the White House and national politics from Reagan to Biden, now managing the White House Correspondents; Association.

GROK Steve Thomma's exact birth date is not publicly available in a single definitive source, but some clues can help estimate his age. He graduated from Dominican University in 1976, as noted in an interview with the Dominican Star Newspaper published on November 20, 2024. Assuming he graduated at a typical age of around 22, this would place his birth year approximately in 1954. As of today, April 11, 2025, that would make him about 70 or 71 years old, depending on his exact birthday.
Additionally, a POLITICO article from December 23, 2019, titled "BIRTHDAY OF THE DAY: Steve Thomma, executive director of the White House Correspondents Association," implies he has a birthday around late December, but it doesn’t specify the year. This aligns with the estimate, suggesting he could have turned 71 in December 2024 or will turn 71 in December 2025.
Therefore, Steve Thomma is likely around 70 or 71 years old as of April 11, 2025.
