CNN, Politico and MS NOW announced this morning that they are suing the administration over President Trump’s banning them from the White House. I assume they will win that case, as news outlets won a virtually identical case a year and a half ago. In the meantime, however, we have this good news:
Major television networks agreed on Monday to suspend a rotation of broadcast journalists who cover President Trump after the White House removed CNN from a planned assignment covering the president’s trip to New York.
“Effective today, the TV pool will not be covering events designated as pool coverage of the President,” Bryan Boughton, the Washington bureau chief at Fox News, who currently serves as TV pool chair, wrote in an email to pool members. “This follows the White House’s position preventing CNN from fulfilling its assigned pool duties.”
Excellent! Personally, I would be happy if the entire Democratic Party press stopped covering President Trump...
