Stephen King, Don Winslow Taunt Stephanie Grisham With Megabucks Briefing Challenge Lee Moran HuffPost January 9, 2020 Bestselling authors Don Winslow and Stephen King on Wednesday laid down a megabucks charity challenge to White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham to hold the Trump administration’s first official press briefing in more than 300 days. “The Cartel” writer Winslow promised to donate $75,000 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, in Grisham’s name if she held “a one hour press conference ‘this week’ with the full White House Press Corps” amid the now-paused escalation of U.S. tensions with Iran. “What are you afraid of Stephanie?” he tweeted: “The Shining” author King quickly offered a matching challenge: Both Winslow and King are staunch critics of President Donald Trump and his administration. Winslow’s Twitter bio features the line: “BTW: DONALD TRUMP IS A CRIMINAL.” King, meanwhile, frequently bashes Trump on the president’s favorite social media platform. He has previously offered to stump up $10,000 to see Winslow debate Trump on his promised wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Grisham’s predecessor as press secretary, held the last daily White House press briefing in March 2019. Grisham, who has not responded to Winslow and King’s challenge, confirmed in October there were no plans to bring briefings back. “If the president ever wants me to go out and do a briefing, if there is a time when we have a very important topic that we need to go out there and announce, of course, we can do a briefing,” Grisham told Fox Business host Trish Regan.
