CNN, MS NOW and Politico sue Trump. And, Paramount settles in massive merger lawsuit
CNN, MS NOW and Politico have sued Trump after the networks were suspended from the White House. And, Paramount makes concessions to resolve a lawsuit over its massive Warner Bros. Discovery merger.
US President Donald Trump and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani appeared to have a cordial relationship at Gracie Mansion on Monday, despite a significant disagreement over press access. Mamdani expressed his belief that all members of the media should be welcome at their New York events, following the White House's restriction of CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the grounds. Trump defended the media restrictions, stating that the media had a responsibility to report on him fairly.
During their public meeting, both leaders praised each other, with Trump noting Mamdani's potential as a great mayor. However, their disagreements were most evident in Trump's decision to ban CNN, Politico, and MS NOW from the White House. Mamdani insisted that journalists would be allowed to cover events in New York, emphasizing the importance of a free press.
The two leaders met at Gracie Mansion, the mayor's official residence in Manhattan, during Trump's visit to New York for the UN General Assembly. Mamdani emphasized his commitment to working with Trump on various issues, including the 12,000 affordable homes plan for Sunnyside Yard in Queens. Despite their public clashes, the two have reportedly continued to meet, with their relationship being described as cordial in a previous article.
