The White House has unveiled a new form of media: Trump TV, a 24/7 livestream showcasing the administration's top moments, announcements, and the latest news. Critics have labeled this new outlet as state-run media, drawing parallels to North Korea, China, and Cuba. California Governor Gavin Newsom called it "autocratic behavior from a failed President."
Trump TV was created following the White House's decision to ban independent news organizations like CNN, MSNBC, and Politico from the press pool. The new channel aims to drown out any negative press about the administration, according to its creators.
