多名白宫官员正在质疑凯蒂·扎卡里亚能担任多久的新闻秘书一职，原因是她在周二举行的首场新闻发布会表现不佳，称其表现不太可能让总统唐纳德·特朗普满意。
一名官员称她短暂的首次亮相不同寻常，另一名官员则将其形容为“糟糕透顶”。
扎卡里亚在讲台前仅停留了约15分钟，其中大部分时间用于发表开场声明，吹捧特朗普的政绩。整场简报会中仅有约5分半钟用于回答记者提问。
她仅点名了三名记者，且似乎按照预先写好的名单进行挑选：一名来自保守媒体网站布莱特巴特新闻网，坐在“新媒体”席位；另一名来自福克斯新闻；最后一名来自《每日邮报》。
此次简报会明显短于此前的常规时长。前白宫新闻秘书卡洛琳·利夫特的简报会平均时长约为45分钟。在她的首场简报会上，她先点名了两名“新媒体”记者，之后才点美联社记者的名字。她还会回答站在过道里的记者的提问。
其他总统顾问将周二的简报会描述为尴尬、生硬且有时令人不适。一名顾问告诉CNN，尽管扎卡里亚“表现不算出色”，但这只是她的首场新闻发布会。他们预计特朗普会给她机会。
“毫无疑问，我们都在想念卡洛琳，”一名顾问说道。
扎卡里亚表示，她提前结束简报会是因为特朗普很快就要在白宫南草坪接受记者提问，随后将启程前往阿拉斯加。
“我现在要结束这场简报会，因为特朗普总统即将登上海军一号，开启我们具有历史意义的阿拉斯加之行，届时我们可以在那里向他提出所有问题，”她说道。
目前尚不清楚扎卡里亚将以何种频率举行记者简报会。CNN《可靠消息来源》栏目对白宫视频档案的分析显示，已于8月离任的利夫特在2025年4月底休产假前的四个月里，平均每周举行约一次正式简报会，共举办了14场。
2025年剩余时间里，她又举办了49场简报会，其中包括几场非传统形式的简报会。

White House officials question whether Trump will keep Zacharia in press secretary role after short first briefing

Several White House officials are questioning how long Katie Zacharia will keep the press secretary job after her first briefing Tuesday, noting her performance was unlikely to satisfy President Donald Trump.
One called her fleeting initial appearance unusual, and another characterized it as “brutal.”
Zacharia appeared at the podium for only about 15 minutes, and most of that time was dedicated to an opening statement touting Trump’s accomplishments. About 5½ minutes were spent on questions from the press.
She called on only three reporters, and she appeared to have their names on a prewritten list: one from conservative outlet Breitbart, which was in the “new media” seat, another from Fox News and the last at the Daily Mail.
The briefing was notably shorter than what had become the norm. Former White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt’s briefings lasted for about an average of 45 minutes. During her first briefing, she called on two “new media” reporters before an Associated Press correspondent. She would also take questions from reporters standing in the aisles.
Other advisers to the president described Tuesday’s briefing as awkward, stilted and, at times, uncomfortable. Another told CNN that while Zacharia “wasn’t great,” it was just her first press briefing. They expected Trump would give her the benefit of the doubt.
“No question we’re all missing Karoline,” said one adviser.
Zacharia said she was cutting the briefing short because Trump would likely soon take reporter questions on the White House South Lawn before he departed for Alaska.
“I am going to end it because President Trump is heading out to Marine One for our historic trip to Alaska, and we can ask him all of the questions out there,” she said.
It is unclear on what cadence Zacharia will brief reporters. A CNN Reliable Sources analysis of the White House video archive found Leavitt, who departed the role in August, held formal briefings about once a week on average before having her second child. She held 14 briefings in the four months leading up to her maternity leave in late April.
She held another 49 briefings through the rest of 2025, which included several nontraditional briefings.
