NORTH PLAINS, Ore. — Ari Fleischer stood no more than 20 feet from the stage Tuesday as players took questions from the media ahead of the second LIV Golf Invitational Series event, diligently taking notes on the questions and answers.
The former White House press secretary runs a communications company and was hired as a consultant for everything under “the comms consulting umbrella,” Fleischer told PR Week.
Brooks Koepka and Pat Perez got testy when they said they didn’t receive any sort of media training to deal with the difficult questions about the connection to Saudi Arabia and its human rights record or the current battle between LIV Golf and the PGA and DP World tours.
