US networks halt Trump coverage in revolt over White House ban
Television networks boycotted in protest at the decision to ban three leading outlets as Donald Trump stepped up his years-long attack on the US media.
Five top US broadcasters halted their White House pool coverage in solidarity with CNN over the president's ban. CNN, MSNBC, and Politico filed lawsuits after being barred from the White House. The ban affected Trump's opening of a new helipad and trip to the UN. The White House maintains the ban targets "FAKE NEWS".
