Journos at WH briefing REALLY want to know ‘where’s Sean?’
At today’s White House presser, Sarah Huckabee Sanders fielded reporters’ questions instead of Sean Spicer:

Journos, Urban Radio Networks reporter & CNN commentator April Ryan in particular, didn’t want to give up until finding out where Spicer was:

Why isn't Spicer briefing? "There are a lot of demands on his schedule particularly because there's no comms director," @SHSanders45

Asked why she's briefing today not Spicer, Sarah Huckabee Sanders: "Part of my job as well." He's taking on "little bit of extra duty."
