Lawsuit over White House media ban assigned to Trump nominee

Americas 1 source 1 country 🔦 Under-reported 30m ago

A federal lawsuit challenging the Trump administration's ban of three media outlets from the White House has been assigned to U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly, a judicial nominee appointed by President Trump who has prior experience with the administration's clashes with the press. The legal challenge centers on whether the ban violates constitutional free press protections by restricting media access to the executive mansion.

Meanwhile, Vice President Vance publicly defended the administration's actions, describing the restriction as totally appropriate. Vance argued that the measure does not constitute an outright ban on the outlets, but rather a denial of special access to the White House.
