Now there's a date for a potential press conference: January 11.

"I know that's the current plan. So that's next week," one of Trump's top advisors, Kellyanne Conway, told Anderson Cooper on CNN Monday night.

After he was elected on November 8, Trump broke with tradition and chose not to meet the press corps for a Q&A session. He has communicated with the public through tweets, rallies and a small number of interviews.

He tweeted, "I will hold a press conference in the near future to discuss the business, Cabinet picks and all other topics of interest. Busy times!"
