Jen Psaki in Conversation with Lawrence O’Donnell — Say More: Lessons from Work, the White House, and the World

May 08, 2024

Former White House Press Secretary and current MSNBC host Jen Psaki shares stories and insights from her memoir, Say More: Lessons from Work, the White House, and the World. She shares her journey to the Briefing Room and beyond, taking readers along the campaign trail, to the State Department, and inside the White House under two Presidents. With her signature wit, Psaki discusses reporting to bosses from the hot-tempered Rahm Emanuel to the coolly intellectual Barack Obama to the surprisingly tenderhearted John Kerry. She also talks about her time working closely with President Joe Biden from the start of his administration to set a new tone for the country, restoring a sense of calm and respect for the role of the media in our Democracy. And she shares insights from her career after the White House, her personal life, and more.
