President Donald Trump announced a ban on CNN, MS Now, and Politico from the White House. He cited their "constant reporting" of "FAKE NEWS" and stated that media outlets should not report fiction and lies about the administration. Trump expressed his desire for a semblance of truth from journalists. He further indicated that these bans could extend to other media outlets. The president mentioned the possibility of suing these news organizations. He previously banned The Associated Press, leading to legal challenges regarding First Amendment rights. A federal judge initially enjoined the AP ban, but an appeals court partially stayed it. The court allowed Trump to ban the AP from certain presidential spaces. However, reporters were still permitted access to the White House's East Room. Currently, the White House lacks a press secretary and regular press briefings are disrupted. A likely immediate consequence involves removing these networks from presidential and vice presidential pool rotations.
