‘Dangerous for our Country’: Trump slams CNN, Politico, MS NOW over White House lawsuit
US President Donald Trump has accused CNN, Politico, and MS NOW of publishing "dangerous" negative and defamatory stories, following their lawsuit against the administration for barring their journalists' access to the White House. The three news outlets filed a lawsuit in federal court in Washington, arguing that the administration's decision to limit their coverage violates their First Amendment rights.
Trump defended the restrictions in a social media post, stating that the media has "NO credibility" and that he won a "LANDSLIDE" in the election because of their crooked and corrupt coverage. CNN, Politico, and MS NOW requested the court to act swiftly and restore their access while the case proceeds, arguing that the government should not decide what the press reports.
