According to Xinhua News Agency, reporters traveling on the US presidential plane Air Force One were exposed to often stealing wine glasses, dinner plates and other items from the plane, to the point where the White House couldn't bear it.
The US Politico website reported on the 28th that over the years, many reporters have secretly stuffed plates, wine glasses and other items with the Air Force One logo into their bags before getting off the plane, causing the backpacks to jingle when they got off the plane. ring.
A current White House reporter recalled that when he first flew on Air Force One, the people around him said, "You should take that wine glass away." "They seemed to be saying: 'This is what everyone does.'"
Several colleagues of the former White House reporter who worked for a major newspaper revealed that they once hosted a dinner party, and all the food was served on gold-rimmed Air Force One plates. It looked like it had been delivered in batches over a long period of time. .
When the President of the United States travels on Air Force One, he is usually accompanied by more than a dozen reporters. Media organizations pay for journalists to fly on chartered flights and for on-board meals. The accompanying press conference will receive chocolates with the presidential seal and signature as souvenirs, while other items with the "Air Force One" logo need to be purchased through the White House souvenir website with their own money. However, a former White House official said that some "Air Force One" souvenirs sold on the website are not exactly the same as the actual items used on the aircraft, "that's why the things on the aircraft are so memorable."
At the beginning of last month, after a multi-day trip, the crew of Air Force One took inventory of their belongings and then reported to the relevant departments of the White House that many items were missing from the cabin where the accompanying reporters were traveling. Kelly O'Donnell, president of the White House Correspondents' Association, subsequently sent an email to the White House press corps, warning them not to take items from Air Force One without permission.
Politico reported that after receiving the email, at least one reporter "quietly returned" an embroidered pillowcase taken from Air Force One to staff tracking the lost items outside the White House. The atmosphere at the return scene was quite awkward: there was no communication between the two parties, and the reporter "just handed the pillowcase to the staff."
Multiple White House officials familiar with the matter said that this "crackdown" was not intended to embarrass reporters who "shun" things, but to remind accompanying reporters to "stop stealing."
