Media barred from Trump's nomination in Charlotte.

The US Republican Party's vote to nominate its presidential candidate this month will be held in private, without press in attendance.

A Republican National Convention spokeswoman gave coronavirus health guidelines as the reason, the Associated Press reports.

The decision marks a significant change for the convention, which historically has worked to draw media attention to spread party messaging to the public.

The health guidelines strike me as a pretextual reason. It doesn't need to be a ton of press. Just having one person each from all of the major media formats and pool footage and pictures.

Or one camera that streams for all the news services like they do for some of the hearings.

Hmm, lots of precautions to avoid something Donald identified as a Democratic hoax.

Wonder what they're really hiding?

Not so fast! Media not barred from Trump's nomination in Charlotte. Maybe. Hey, we'll get back to you.

Republican National Committee disputes GOP convention spokesperson’s claim that Trump’s renomination will be closed to media

The Republican National Committee says no final decision has been made about whether President Trump’s renomination will be held in private at the GOP convention in Charlotte, contradicting previous reports that restrictions on crowd size during the coronaviruspandemic would prevent the news media from attending.

Two RNC officials insisted Sunday that they are still working through the logistics and press coverage options, a break with a statement reportedly made by a GOP convention spokesperson the previous day.

Like a well-oiled machine!
