NEW YORK ― President-elect Donald Trump met privately with top network executives and anchors at Trump Tower on Monday for an off-the-record gathering that comes amid serious concerns about the level of access journalists will receive from the incoming White House. The who’s who of TV news included network presidents, such as NBC’s Deborah Turness and ABC’s James Goldston, and high-profile anchors like CNN’s Wolf Blitzer. But it’s less common to have both network bosses and top on-air talent to meet with a president, or in this case, the president-elect. New York Times reporters and editorial columnists will have an opportunity to question Trump on the record when he visits the paper on Tuesday, according to a Times spokesperson. Although the gathering at the Trump Tower was off the record, the event wasn’t kept a secret.
