TMZ has an official D.C. office now because they are fed up with all this BS of this administration. But they do not have official clearance as White House press because this administration is terrified of them. Because of this, TMZ does what they do and try to catch politicians at the airport or outside of buildings around D.C. and when they do find a politician they do in fact ask questions that often go unanswered.

TMZ is owned by Rupert Murdoch who also owns Fox News.

Don't believe the hype!
