CNN, MS NOW and Politico sue Trump, challenging White House ban
Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported7m ago
On Monday, September 21, news organizations CNN, MS NOW, and Politico filed a lawsuit in Washington against President Donald Trump and members of his administration. The legal action challenges the White House's ban barring these outlets from the grounds, arguing that the restriction violates their First Amendment rights to free speech and a free press.
The ban on the reporters was enacted following the outlets' coverage of the president and his administration. Concurrently, the White House launched a 24/7 YouTube streaming initiative called Trump TV, with its inaugural video featuring a livestream of President Trump speaking at Mount Rushmore from July 3.
