Trump kicks CNN out of the White House. The broadcaster: "It's an illegitimate attack on press freedom."

President Donald Trump has restricted access to the White House for several media organizations, including CNN, MSNBC, and Politico. The administration characterized the targeted outlets as purveyors of fake news, leading to the exclusion of their representatives from official proceedings. CNN has formally denounced the move, labeling the decision an illegitimate attack on the freedom of the press.

The actions have prompted broader criticism regarding the administration's relationship with the media. The publisher of the New York Times has publicly described the current administration as the most hostile toward the press in the history of the United States.
