Description

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki has a front row to all things Washington. Psaki is a veteran of public service, and as the face of the overnight change demonstrated by President Biden’s first day in office, she embodies cool, calm, and collected in her daily press briefings. But Psaki gets personal with News Not Noise, sharing how she really feels about the Republican attack on LGBTQ+ rights and giving us a glimpse of what it’s like being a mother of two young children while working in the White House. Plus, she addresses student loan debt and rising gas prices and explains why the Department of Justice has been so slow rolling in their charges against Capitol Rioters for their roles on January 6. She was previously the communications director during the Obama Administration, and prior to that, Psaki worked as a traveling press secretary during Senator Obama’s campaign for the presidency.

I’m Jessica Yellin, the founder of News Not Noise. For years, I worked in network news at ABC, MSNBC, and CNN, where I was the Chief White House Correspondent. I’ve reported from around the world and won awards.The more years I got under my belt as a reporter, the more I became convinced that the news doesn't speak to a large part of the audience.In the summer of 2018, I did something different. The midterm elections were approaching and friends asked me to explain what the heck was happening in the political cycle.So, I picked up my phone and began posting short, daily explainer videos on Instagram. What started with me and a ring light is now a small team, dedicated to giving you news in a different voice. We aim to provide facts, not panic attacks. We interview real experts — not pundits. My goal is to provide the understanding you need to engage in the conversation and take action in the world.
