NewzSix United States citizens filed a lawsuit on Monday against President Donald Trump over his administration's bans on certain media outlets whose reporting he dislikes. The plaintiffs argue that these press bans deprive them of news, asserting rights as audience stakeholders who watch, read, and need the information to perform their jobs.
The legal action introduces a new third-party dynamic into the escalating standoff between the president and news organizations. Rather than being brought by the media companies themselves, the suit centers on the interests of the viewing and reading public.
