Without a hard pass, a reporter must apply for a day pass to enter the White House, which may or may not be granted depending on the whims of the White House for the day. Also, during emergencies a hard pass is pretty much impossible to get, which means during some of the most critical times when press access is needed for the country to know what is going on, a hard pass is the only way to have access.
