A press secretary is a person who talks to the news reporters for someone important, like the President, a governor, or a CEO. They help the important person tell the public what they want them to know.
Say you are the President of the United States, which is a really important job! You need to talk to lots of people all the time because everyone is curious about what you're doing. But you can't talk to everyone at once, and some people might not behave nicely. So, you can hire someone to speak for you. That person is called a press secretary.
The press secretary is someone who tells the news reporters what you are doing on behalf of you. They talk to the news reporters about important things the President said, policies, changes of laws, important events, and updates with the administration. They can also ask and answer questions from the news reporters if the President is not available to do so.
The press secretary also keeps the President's schedule, prepares speeches, press releases, and news briefings. They work closely with other people who are doing similar jobs, such as advisors, communications directors, and public relations teams.
The Press Secretary has a big job! They help important people communicate with the public and make sure everyone knows what's happening. They take on a lot of responsibility and work very hard so that the important person doesn't have to do everything themselves.
