I always said Trump should have done it this way and set tighter controls on who could enter the WH and who he spoke to, but for some reason he seems to enjoy giving interviews to people who hate him.
He should have stood his ground and said "Jim assaulted a woman- CNN isn't banned, just him for his unacceptable actions. He can apply again in 1 year and we'll re-evaluate if he's shown genuine reform of his behavior."
No, when the courts said he couldn't ban people, he should have ended press conferences entirely. There's nothing in the law saying they are required and there's no reason why a bunch of anointed priests should be allowed special privileges.
Hold press conferences online and let people vote on the questions. Journalists have to get in line like everyone else.
Trump was massively incompetent at doing a lot of things, including getting good people in office (picking barr as AG, come on, he thinks ruby ridge was justified).
He wouldn't lose his base if he just did a good job, all he did was provide fuel to energize the left and encourage election board terror cells to cheat in desperation.
So they're protecting the Potato in case he gropes one of the staff.
The requirements seem to make sure these staff members are within arms-reach of the Secret Service and have been known to them for a significant amount of time.

I'm sure the networks would have aired explanation in full and called off the dogs...
It's not about calling off dogs. It's about telling the media to go get fucked by said dogs.
Any response they make is irrelevant.
Don't threaten MSNBC anchors with [what they'd consider] a good time.

Because he's ultimately a narcissist and cares what they have to say about him. He did so many things to get in the good graces of legacy media.
Trump invites them to embarrass themselves and then weaponizes it. Weaponizing anti-media sentiment is one of his biggest strengths.

Because he was "pwning the libs." Cheap optics.

Female WH Press Room staff. Not reporter.

What happened? Did 442 people forget to use imaginary pronouns or something?
If the media had any integrity left the cameras would show Sideshow Bob talking to an empty room.
