The WaPo reports:

The White House spokesman will spin on a new stage next summer.

With the administration moving ahead with plans to renovate the dirty and decaying press room off the West Wing of the White House, spokesman Scott McClellan — or his replacement, if he steps aside before then — intends to start briefing the world from historic Jackson Place, across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House, as early as July.

This means the television, print and radio reporters and crews will be booted from the White House for at least seven months as the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room is modernized…

Hugh Hewitt has a fabulous idea:

Whoever is doing the redesign, let’s hope they put in a bloggers row, right at the front, and lose the reserved seating for the dinosaurs from MSM.

It’s definitely time to rearrange that decrepit old furniture.
