Three major news organizations, CNN, MSNBC, and Politico, have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over their journalists being barred from the White House and having their press credentials revoked. Their joint statement emphasizes their intent to protect their First Amendment rights and challenge the government's decision to interfere with independent journalism.
CNN described the proposed ban as an "illegal assault" on its constitutional right to journalism, while the Trump administration accused the outlets of reporting "fiction and lies" about him and his administration.
