6 citizens sue Trump, saying media ban deprives them of news as audience stakeholders
Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported51m ago
Six private citizens filed a lawsuit on Monday against President Donald Trump, alleging that his administration's media bans deprive them of news as audience stakeholders. The plaintiffs argue they are losing access to vital information that media outlets covering Trump previously provided, which they need to perform their jobs.
The legal action emerges amid an increasingly bitter standoff between President Trump and media organizations whose reporting he dislikes. By introducing news consumers as a crucial third party, the lawsuit challenges restrictions on White House media access from the perspective of the public's right to receive information.
