A Twitter executive suggested to President Trump on Friday that he replace the traditional daily White House press briefings with question-and-answers sessions via Twitter.

Anthony Noto, the company’s chief operating and financial officer, made the proposal in response to the president’s threat to cancel press briefings amid a media firestorm over his decision to fire FBI Director James Comey.

“May I suggest questions submitted and answered via Twitter. A perfect record and we distribute to the world not just those with a TV,” Noto tweeted.

@realDonaldTrump May I suggest questions submitted and answered via Twitter. A perfect record and we distribute to the world not just those with a TV — Anthony Noto (@anthonynoto) May 12, 2017

Noto later clarified in another tweet that he is not in favor of canceling the press briefings.

@realDonaldTrump Twtr is a way to add distribution not a substitute for a vibrant & free press. I don't support cancelling press briefing. Sorry 4 confusion — Anthony Noto (@anthonynoto) May 12, 2017

Trump had been defending White House surrogates after he undermined the official explanation put forth earlier this week of the Comey firing.

The dismissal was originally said to be the result of a recommendation from top Justice Department officials, but on Thursday Trump told NBC News that he had already had his mind made up to fire Comey regardless of what officials recommended.
