Katie Zacharia was in the MIDDLE of a newspaper interview at her desk when Trump fired her after five days
Laughter erupts in the briefing room as Katie Zacharia cuts short her debut White House press conference after accepting just three pre-selected questions in 14 minutes.Three bikini photographs deleted from Katie Zacharia's Instagram account — she had previously condemned women who wear "bikini-style gym attire" as crossing a line.
Senior adviser Jason Miller knocked on her West Wing door at 1pm on Friday and told her: 'JD wanted to chat with us real quick.' Katie Zacharia walked out and never returned to the interview. Minutes later, President Donald Trump told reporters at his helipad that he had advised her: 'Honestly, if I were you, I'd reconsider.' Her ouster was public in under an hour.
Trump reportedly told aides privately she 'had no talent and shouldn't be on television'.
Her run was shorter than Anthony Scaramucci's 11 days as communications director.
Zacharia still gushed on Instagram: 'It was an honor to work for him.'
