1) No, it does not. The way that the press has treated this administration I wouldn't be surprised if they completely shut them out. Every thing that is said it parsed and twisted to mean something other than what it actually means. The US press cannot be trusted. I think the president would be right to simply send out a printed question every day and not answer any more of their ridiculous "gotcha" questions.
2) Leaking information from the White House is illegal. Watergate was one of the most over blown stories in our history. What actually happened was a minor infraction. The big mistake made was the cover up. That unfortunately brought one of the best presidents in recent history.
