Trump bans CNN, Politico and MS NOW from White House

–

Neutral summary

President Donald Trump announced on Friday, September 18, that CNN, Politico and MS NOW would be banned from the White House with immediate effect, accusing them of publishing false information about his administration. In a post on Truth Social, he said the media should not be able to “constantly write or report fiction and lies” when covering the president, the Trump administration or the United States, and threatened to extend the restriction to other outlets. The following day, the press passes of all three outlets' teams were confiscated, according to France 24, which also reported that the outlets have hinted at legal action. The ban has drawn sharp criticism from press freedom advocates and from Maryland Governor Wes Moore, who said Trump treats the Constitution like a “suggestion box,” while Senator John Barrasso downplayed concerns that the move violated the Constitution. NRK noted that last winter the Associated Press was expelled from the White House for refusing to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America. G1 added that Trump again cited Politico over an $8 million payment he claims the US government made during Joe Biden's tenure.
