[정치][팩트와이] What is the truth about the number of press conferences for the president,’Each’?

[앵커]

After President Moon Jae-in’s New Year’s press conference ended on the 18th, the people’s power criticized it as a “breathing and unconventional regime,” saying that the number of press conferences was much less than that of the previous government.

Then, there is a controversy, such as Tak Hyun-min, the Blue House Protocol Secretary, refuting that it is not true.

What is the truth about the number of press conferences for the president in the past?

The number of press conferences for the president, compiled by the people’s power, is the same as reported by various media since the press conference for President Moon’s New Year on the 18th.

Everyone, the reporters of the Journalists Association, is the source.

▲ The Journalists Association investigated it?

The Journalists Association publishes an association report every Wednesday.

However, there is nowhere about the number of press conferences for the president.

The reporters’ association explained that it has never conducted such an investigation, and that it is not known why it was selected as the source.

The media continued to report indiscriminately citing without any confirmation, and even the 1st opposition party dictated the contents.

▲ MB press conference 20 times?

The number of interviews depends on how you set the criteria.

In the case of former President Lee Myung-bak, who has frequently conducted summit diplomacy, it exceeds twenty times, including joint conferences after the summit.

However, the President’s exclusive press conference was held at 10 times, which was a place to promote diplomatic achievements, including the G20 Summit and Nuclear Security Summit.

Regardless of the outcome, there were only three press conferences for communication, and even that was when there were urgent issues such as the’beef mad cow disease wave’ or’the construction of a new airport in the southeastern region’.

▲ Number of press conferences, MB> 文?

President Moon Jae-in, who still has one year in office, has held eight exclusive press conferences so far.

This number alone is less than that of former President Lee Myung-bak, but much more has been done without publicity or specific issues.

However, President Moon Jae-in responded to questions from citizens and panelists twice less than former President Lee Myung-bak.

In the case of former President Park Geun-hye, there are only three press conferences, excluding an interview with an overseas leader or a one-sided speech.

It is the only one that appeared on the broadcast in the form of a conversation on a conservative YouTube broadcast after the impeachment bill was passed.
