NewzThree major news organizations—CNN, MS NOW, and Politico—have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration following their ban from White House grounds. The plaintiffs are arguing that the ban imposed by President Donald Trump is unconstitutional.
In response to the media organizations, President Trump criticized the outlets as 'FAKE NEWS' and a 'Cancer' to the United States, further stating that they pose a threat to national security. The legal challenge raises broader questions regarding government access for journalists covering the presidency.
Commentary surrounding the event emphasizes that government access to the president should not serve as a reward for favorable coverage. Analysts and observers note that the core role of the White House press corps is to report the statements and actions of the president rather than to cultivate a positive public image.
