All media organizations not just the cable news channels, but also the AP, New York Times, and others are being shut out of many events which they formerly had access to.

Instead the clear strategy of administration has been to limit media access and to control the narrative by launching material through there own channels. Channels such as there youtube channel "The White House" where you can find the interview Hank Green is referencing. I haven't watched the entire interview, but if it is being hosted and potentially produced by the White House I can't consider it objective. I don't think I can consider it journalism either, but at the same time I don't think I can consider a lot of what is on Fox News as journalism either.
There are a lot of other people who I like to see interview the President, but never will. One person that comes to mind would be Amy Goodman. She isn't as hip as the Youtubers, but she has spoken at my college and many others. She definitely holds a clear leftists standpoint, but I know her questions would be unrelenting and would lead to a much needed discourse about actions of this administration.
There was this one instance were Bill Clinton accidentally ended up being interview by her.
Anecdotally I watched the State of Union last week. Not on CNN or MSNBC, but on Whitehouse.gov. Not positive, but it looked like is was using Youtube livestreaming services. In that stream alongside each of the points there preprepared supporting graphics.
