Conservative talk-show host Laura Ingraham appeared on Tuesday to back away from the possibility of replacing White House press secretary Sean Spicer.

"You can keep taking your selfies," he told reporters at the daily press briefing.
His comments were at Spicer's first on-camera session with reporters in eight days.
"Look, it's no secret we've had a couple vacancies, including our communications director, he's been gone for a while," he said. "We've been meeting with potential people that may be of service to this administration.
"I don't think that should come as any surprise but we're always looking for ways to do a better job of articulating the president's message and his agenda."
Spicer then added: "When we have an announcement of a personnel nature, we'll let you know."
