A conversation with White House Correspondents' Association president Kelly O'Donnell - Poynter
Briefly

The White House Correspondents Association advocates for access for the media every single day. Our situation is that we have a large group of journalists who work for different employers and different kinds of media - print, television, radio, digital media, all the different kinds - and so we are an association that brings that together with one voice.
We plan the press coverage for foreign travels. Every time the president goes out of the country, we are organizing where the hotels are going to be for press, how are we getting transportation to the venues, how are we getting credentialing done. We do all of that. We arrange the pools every single day, which are the rotating group of journalists who are always closest to the president.
