Inside the White House Press Corps: Yunji de Nies

Today, we go Inside the White House Press Corps to speak with ABC News White House correspondent Yunji de Nies. Before joining ABC News, the UC Berkeley Journalism grad worked for 2 years at ABC’s New Orleans affiliate, where she did extensive reporting on Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath. Now, as part of ABC News’ White House team, she’s on the cutting edge of political reporting that combines the reach of a television network with the agility of new media.

In our exclusive interview, Yunji talks about covering the President and Rush Limbaugh at the same time, taking cameras out of the briefing room, and makes a confession about her TV viewing habits.
