Office of Public Affairs
Press Office
Special Assistant to the President,
Deputy Press Secretary and Senior Director
Members of the Press Office for Foreign Affairs serve the President,
the National Security Advisor and the White House Press Secretary on
all press-related matters involving national security, defense and
foreign policy issues. The NSC press secretaries maintain these
principals' awareness of current foreign policy news items and
coordinate all contacts between the NSC staff and the media.
The office's main responsibility is to represent the Administration's
foreign policy to the press. It achieves this by coordinating the public
messages of the U.S. government's diplomatic, defense and intelligence
communities, by briefing the White House press corps on foreign policy
matters and by responding to the requests and inquiries of foreign and
domestic media.
