Trump says he is banning CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House
The president chalked the ban up to what he called unfavorable coverage, and he threatened that bans on other media companies could be coming.
President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he has placed a ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House press pool, effective immediately. The president accused the three outlets of spreading "fake news" about him and his administration. Trump also hinted that other fake news media outlets would be subject to similar restrictions. The White House, CNN, MS NOW and Politico have yet to respond to inquiries regarding the potential implications of the ban.
