Trump needs to use Skype and Zoom to bring in reporters outside the Acela corridor

Victor Davis Hanson:

...
Why not return to the earlier Trump paradigm, especially in our new age of Skype and Zoom, to include reporters from the heartland and rural America, who would give some balance in their concerns beyond those of the New York and Washington corridor? Indeed, perhaps outsiders, reporting from different states, might even offer more light than heat about how the nation assesses, and wishes to help, the Eastern Seaboard?

Cannot there be a stable of 20–30 or so reporters from Salt Lake City, Bakersfield, Des Moines, El Paso, and Biloxi, some of whom in each conference can pose questions that will probably be different from those of the Washington press corps — itself an increasingly ossified concept in a post-viral and remote brave new world?

It is in the interest of the nation as well as the president to diversify the press conferences, shorten them, keep them to tight schedules — and to not let them become monotonously hijacked by those with little if any expertise other than in parroting “I told you so” and “I got you.”

I would pick a more representative city than El Paso to get the Texas point of view.  Perhaps Lubbock or Amarillo would be a better choice.  The problem is that in Texas cities many of the newspapers are more left-wing than the voters in those cities.  Even the Dallas Morning News which used to be a conservative bastion has gone liberal on many issues.  The Houston Chronicle is also pretty liberal and mostly supports Democrats.
