The 27-year-old mom of one mocked the establishment media during the debut of the new event, at which members of the White House communications team and cabinet members got acquainted with various podcast stars. Karoline introduced what is called Podcast Row to the millions of followers The White House has on X.
Donning a sky-blue dress, Karoline stood next to a sign with the event’s name on it and proudly explained to fans the event’s purpose.
To conclude the video, Karoline said: “I bet you, the people in that room have much more viewers than CNN and the legacy media, just saying.
“We’re proud to welcome them to the White House,” she added.
Staffers were set up in a room in the executive office building on the White House grounds, allowing for podcast and camera crews to participate in the event.
The likes of Michael Knowles of the Daily Wire, Jack Posobiec of Human Events, Dr. Drew Piskey, Sage Steele, War Room’s Natalie Winters, NewsNation correspondent Libbey Dean and David Freiheit were among the list of podcasters and new media figures invited to the event.
Speaking to DailyMail.com, White House Deputy Communications Director Kaelan Dorr gushed: “Our inaugural Podcast Row at the White House was a rousing success.”

He went on to explain that President Joe Biden’s administration had practically frozen out some of the new media voices, including prominent podcast platforms.
Karoline’s jab at CNN network came after she lashed out at one of their journalists during a press conference last week. Kaitlan Collins probed the Press Secretary about the ongoing scandal involving Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg.
The heated exchange came when Collins asked if President Donald Trump felt misled by his National security advisors.
During the press briefing, Kaitlan asked: “Since we have these messages released and you have said that the president had now personally reviewed them in the chat and at one point Pete had wrote ‘1415 strike drones on target and in all caps he said this is when the first bombs will definitely drop.'”
The question seemed to hit a nerve of Karoline, who laid into Kaitlan: “I have now been asked and answered this question three times by the both of you,” while gesturing to another reporter.
“And I have given you my answer. The president feels the same as he did yesterday,” Karoline added before refusing to answer any more of Kaitlan’s questions.
