Sanders Named Press Secretary

Friday, 21 July 2017 02:38 PM EDT

White House deputy press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders has been promoted to replace outgoing press secretary Sean Spicer, it was announced Friday.

Spicer announced his departure after President Donald Trump hired a new White House communications director, ending his rocky six-month tenure as Trump's top spokesman.

Sanders has been handling most of the briefing duties in recent weeks, and most briefings have been off-camera. The last on-camera White House briefing was held on June 29.
