Trump’s D.C. Hotel Has Reportedly Banned Reporters During Inauguration Week

Well, this is fitting. The Trump International Hotel in Washington has reportedly barred reporters during inauguration week.

“Media is not allowed in this week in respect of the privacy of our guests,” Patricia Tang, the hotel’s director of sales and marketing, told Politico’s Daniel Lippman in an email on Wednesday. That comment came after Lippman says he attempted to enter the hotel earlier in the day to have breakfast but was denied entry and told that “media” were not allowed in.
