以下是2026年4月26日在《与玛格丽特·布伦南直面国家》节目中播出的,对白宫记者协会主席、哥伦比亚广播公司新闻资深记者黄薇佳的采访实录。

玛格丽特·布伦南: 我们现在邀请到了现任白宫记者协会主席、本台资深白宫记者黄薇佳。薇佳,谢谢你。过去几个小时局势非常紧张。你们刚刚迎接了所有来宾,晚宴刚开场就发生了这起事件。我现在看到了相关视频——当总统被紧急转移至安全地带时,你正从舞台上爬离。当时后台发生了什么?总统为什么没有撤离?

黄薇佳: 玛格丽特,一切都发生得太快了。我们还在舞台上时,正和表演节目的艺人进行一段非常轻松的互动。我听到观众那边传来动静,一开始以为只是抗议者,这类情况我们已经司空见惯。但紧接着,我看到特警队员来到主桌,将我们按倒在地,大喊“趴下!趴下!”,我们就从舞台上爬了下去。舞台后方是等候区,人们——包括特朗普总统和各位贵宾——都在那里等待上台。我们当时就坐在那里,我看到了十多名特警队员,特勤局人员四处忙碌,还有总统团队的成员。可想而知,当时信息非常混乱,因为事件刚发生。我得说,亲眼目睹他们快速反应、展开行动,真的令人动容,正是他们的高效保护了当晚所有人的安全,不只是总统、内阁成员,还有酒店里的每一个人。这确实让人安心,但显然对在场的每个人来说都是一场严峻的考验,包括你。

玛格丽特·布伦南: 但你当时表现得非常镇定,在压力之下展现出了极佳的风度。你后来必须出去和大家沟通,我知道你之所以这么做,是因为你身为协会主席,这对你来说是一个引以为傲的时刻。你的7岁女儿、父母和丈夫都在场,这一切叠加在一起。我想知道你对此有什么感想,为什么我们所有人齐聚一堂如此重要?你现在理清思绪了吗?我想我们都还在消化这一切。

黄薇佳: 我认为我们所有人都还在消化这件事。我的职业生涯中报道过无数起枪击、谋杀和其他恶性事件,但这是我第一次身处潜在暴力致命事件当中,无论多少报道经验都无法让你为此做好准备。你说得对,我的家人当时就在观众席,他们能到场对我来说意义非凡。这又增添了一层额外的复杂情绪,因为我既要想着我的同事们的安全,也要想着所有晚宴来宾的安全,而最首要的,自然是我亲眼所见、对我来说最重要的家人的安全。我们当时完全没有信息来源。我在后台的时候,根本不知道是否还有持续的威胁。我一边盯着监控屏幕,目光紧盯着他们的座位,一边同时设法获取更多信息,好分享给在场的所有人。特朗普总统把我叫到他所在的等候室,在他发布帖子称晚宴——用他的话说——“推迟”,并将举行新闻发布会之前,他先向我通报了情况。他确实希望借此机会解释,他自己也明白当晚的活动有多重要。这是我们每年都会举办的活动,而我在向全场致辞时也提醒过大家,我们今晚在第一修正案下庆祝的这些自由依然极其脆弱。我很感激总统也认可了这一点,他告诉我,我们不会被吓退。他拒绝退缩,这也是他即便经历了这一切仍坚持到场的原因。我不知道他的团队当时是怎么跟他说的,但他们转告我,总统一直说他不会离开,所以他才留了下来。

玛格丽特·布伦南: 我们一直听到他说,他想回来,我们能不能离开?薇佳,我希望——我希望你能回家和家人团聚。谢谢你。

黄薇佳: 谢谢你,玛格丽特。

玛格丽特·布伦南: 非常感谢你和我们分享这些。我们马上回来。

Weijia Jiang on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan,” April 26, 2026

The following is the transcript of the interview with White House Correspondents’ Association President and senior CBS News correspondent Weijia Jiang that aired on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” on April 26, 2026.

MARGARET BRENNAN: We’re joined now by our Senior White House correspondent Weijia Jiang, who’s currently serving as the president of the White House Correspondents Association. Weijia, thank you. It’s been a very intense last few hours. You had just welcomed everyone. You had just started off the evening when this event unfolded. I’ve seen video now of you- you crawling off of the stage as the president was being whisked to safety. What was going on back there? Why didn’t the president leave?

WEIJIA JIANG: Margaret, it all happened so fast, and when we were still on stage, we were in the middle of a very light moment with the entertainer who was doing a trick. And when I heard something in the audience, I thought it was a protester or something we’re very used to. But then when I saw SWAT team members come to the head table and rush us to the ground and say, down, down, down, we were crawling off the stage. And in the back, that is a holding area where people wait, including President Trump and distinguished guests, to go onto the stage. And we were sitting there, and I saw more than a dozen SWAT officers. There were members of the Secret Service milling about. There were members of the president’s team. And as you can imagine, a lot of conflicting information, because it had just unfolded. I will say it was remarkable to see that in action and to understand it was their quick work that protected all of us that night, not just the president, not just the cabinet, everybody in that hotel. And you know that is heartening, but obviously it was a tough situation for everybody that was there, including you.

MARGARET BRENNAN: You were very stoic, though. You had great grace under pressure. You had to go out, you had to talk to everyone. And I know you shared that because you were in this role of the presidency, this was a proud moment for you. Your seven year old daughter was there, your parents were there, your husband was there. This was a lot. And I wonder what you think about this, and why- why it was so important for all of us to be gathered. How are you making sense of that? Have you? I think we’re processing this still.

WEIJIA JIANG: I think we’re all processing it. I have covered countless shootings and murders and terrible things in my career, and this is the first time that I’ve been on the other side of a potentially violent and deadly situation, and no amount of reporting can prepare you for that. You’re right that my family was in the audience, and it was incredibly meaningful to have them there. And so that added an additional complicated layer, because I’m thinking about the safety of my members, the safety of all of our dinner guests, and obviously at the forefront, the safety of the people who I can see, who matter the most to me. And we didn’t have information. So when I was in the back, I didn’t know if there was an active threat. I was watching the monitors and keeping my eyes right on their table. But at the same time trying to find more information so I could share it with everyone in that room. And President Trump called me to his holding room and briefed me before he sent out a post about the dinner being, in his words, postponed and that he was going to have a press conference. And he really wanted to talk it through and to explain that he himself realized how important that night was. It’s something we do every night, and when I did address the room, I reminded everyone that, you know, the freedoms that we are celebrating tonight in the First Amendment are still incredibly fragile. And I appreciate that the president acknowledged that, and he told me that we were not going to be deterred. He refused to stand down, and that’s why he was there, despite what had unfolded, and I don’t know what his team was telling him, they were relaying to me, the president keeps saying he’s not going anywhere, so that’s why he stayed.

MARGARET BRENNAN: We kept hearing that, with the he wants to come back and can we leave? Weijia, I want- I want you to go home to your family. Thank you.

WEIJIA JIANG: Thank you, Margaret.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Thank you very much for sharing with us. We’ll be right back.
