A news conference or press conference is a media event in which newsmakers invite journalists to hear them speak and, most often, ask questions. A joint press conference instead is held between two or more talking sides.
In a news conference, one or more speakers may make a statement, which may be followed by questions from reporters. Sometimes only questioning occurs; sometimes there is a statement with no questions permitted.
A media event at which no statements are made, and no questions allowed, is called a photo opportunity. A government may wish to open their proceedings for the media to witness events, such as the passing of a piece of legislation from the government in parliament to the senate, via a media availability.
Television stations and networks especially value news conferences: because today's TV news programs air for hours at a time, or even continuously, assignment editors have a steady appetite for ever-larger quantities of footage.[clarification needed]
News conferences are often held by politicians (such as the President of the United States); by sports teams; by celebrities or film studios; by commercial organizations to promote products; by attorneys to promote lawsuits; and by almost anyone who finds benefit in the free publicity afforded by media coverage. Some people, including many police chiefs, hold news conferences reluctantly in order to avoid dealing with reporters individually.
Donald John Trump, Sr. (born June 14, 1946) is an American business magnate, television personality and author. He is the chairman and president of The Trump Organization and the founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts. Trump's extravagant lifestyle, outspoken manner and role on the NBC reality show The Apprentice have made him a well-known celebrity who was No. 17 on the 2011 Forbes Celebrity 100 list. He is well-known as a real-estate developer who amassed vast hotel, casino, and other real-estate properties, in the New York City area and around the world.
Trump is the son of Fred Trump, a wealthy New York City real-estate developer. He worked for his father's firm, Elizabeth Trump & Son, while attending the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and in 1968 officially joined the company. He was given control of the company in 1971 and renamed it The Trump Organization.
In 2010, Trump expressed an interest in becoming a candidate for President of the United States in the 2012 election. In May 2011, he announced he would not be a candidate, but a few weeks later he said he had not completely ruled out the possibility. In December 2011, Trump was suggested as a possible Vice Presidential selection by Michele Bachmann. Bachmann has since suspended her presidential campaign.

Genres: Adult, Drama,Soloist (Male):
Does your opponent deserve such abuse?
Freddie:
All Soviets deserve abuse.
Soloist (Female):
But even you must concede he can play.
Freddie:
Sure, he’s the best red on the circuit, I’ll give him that.
Soloist (Male):
He hasn’t lost for a long time; he could be a tough nut to crack.
Freddie:
Listen, if he gets one game off me, it’s because I want to keep press interest going.
Soloists:
Why do you persist with vicious attacks, ungracious remarks re: opponents, it smacks of a lack of conviction- admit you’re under duress, or that your only skill left is for money not chess. If Soviet life is as grim as you claim, then how come the boys are so good at the game? Though you swear the American dream is clearly the best, you’re no advertisement for life and times in the west.
Soloist (Male):
Why did you risk the whole match breaking down?
Freddie:
I don’t know what you’re saying. What are you implying?
Soloist (Female):
All your outrageous demands, such conceit.
Freddie:
I don’t see anything outrageous about demanding what I’m worth.
Soloist (Male):
They pay you all that you ask for and then you demand even more.
Freddie:
I am the reason you’re all here! Who had heard of Sergievsky?
Soloists:
It’s hard to believe what we’re reporting. Why so disparaging? Not very sporting.
Freddie:
Are the Communists sporting? My God!
Soloists:
Tell all this to the United Nations. Are you an asset to east/west relations?
Freddie:
What is this? What have the Russians ever done for “east/west relations”? Have you people got any serious questions?
Soloist (Female):
Will you be quitting for good if you lose?
Soloist (Male):
How come your second’s a girl, lover boy?
Freddie:
What did you say?
Soloist (Male):
How come your second’s a girl, lover boy?
Soloists:
Well, what did I say? He’s out of his tree, he’s finally flipped and between you and me, he’s no hope of retaining his crown in his frame of mind, in fact he shouldn’t have come here, he should have resigned.
Florence (Same time as soloists):
Smile! You’ve got your first exclusive story. Now you can bask in his reflected glory. “Naked, unprovoked, Yankee aggression” Oh, what a credit to your great profession!
Soloists (Same time as Florence):
Well, what did I say? He’s out of his tree, he’s finally flipped and between you and me, he’s no hope of retaining his crown in his frame of mind, in fact he shouldn’t have come here, he should have resigned. In his frame of mind he should have come, he should resign, when he is in his frame of mind, he shouldn’t come he should resign, when he is in his frame of mind, he shouldn’t come he should resign.
