Several journalists from establishment media outlets whined on Twitter Thursday after The Daily Caller received a question at a presser with President Trump.

The Daily Caller’s Saagar Enjeti was called on during a joint presser with the president and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and asked if Trump would ever invite North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un to the United States. Trump said he may even invite him to the White House, but reporters from the likes of CNN and Yahoo News were more interested in critiquing the fact that Trump called on TheDC in the first place.

Enjeti defended himself and noted that his question elicited “major news.”

Other journalists quickly came to the defense of TheDC and Enjeti and criticized Sciutto, Dale and Walker for playing the gatekeepers of journalism.
