Trump's daily briefings may be reworked into TV-style segments with maps and animations, as officials say he avoids reading traditional reports.

The White House is reportedly considering a major overhaul of US President Donald Trump’s daily intelligence briefings to match his preferred media format, with sources claiming the briefings could soon resemble a Fox News broadcast.

According to NBC News, officials are exploring a new presentation style that includes animated maps, visuals of explosions, and reduced text to accommodate the president’s aversion to reading.

The initiative is reportedly being spearheaded by Tulsi Gabbard, the White House’s intelligence chief, who is said to believe the president would absorb more information if it were delivered in a television-friendly format.

Sources familiar with the discussions told NBC that Gabbard has floated the idea of hiring a Fox News producer to transform the briefings, which currently appear as digital documents featuring a mix of written analysis, graphics, and photos.

One proposal includes animations of exploding bombs and interactive maps, designed to visually convey the same information already contained in the brief. While these proposed changes are unorthodox, insiders say the substance of the intelligence would remain unchanged.

“The problem with Trump is that he doesn’t read,” one unnamed official told NBC.

“He’s on broadcast all the time.” Others close to the process noted that Trump’s distrust of intelligence agencies and his long-standing preference for video content prompted the push for a more visually engaging format.

During his first term, Trump’s daily brief was already adjusted to include fewer words and more imagery. Reports suggest he has read the briefing just 14 times since taking office in January, averaging less than once per week.

In response to NBC’s story, Olivia Coleman, press secretary for the director of national intelligence, dismissed the report entirely, “This so-called reporting is laughable, absurd and flat-out false. In true fake news fashion, NBC is publishing yet another anonymously sourced false story.”

White House spokesperson Davis Ingle reiterated, stating, “President Trump has assembled a world-class intelligence team, who he is constantly communicating with and receiving real-time updates from on all pressing national security issues."

Ensuring the safety and security of the American people is President Trump’s number one priority.

Despite the denials, sources suggest that Gabbard is continuing to consider “unconventional” adjustments to how intelligence is delivered to the president as part of a media-centered reform effort.
