Judge orders Trump to restore CNN, Politico and MS NOW's access to White House
Trump justified the ban in a social media post on Friday, accusing the outlets of publishing "fake news" and warning that other news organizations could face similar treatment.
A federal judge has mandated the White House to reinstate press access for CNN, MS NOW, and Politico following the revocation of their credentials, according to CNN. Judge Timothy Kelly determined that the bans infringed upon fundamental due-process rights, as the media outlets did not receive prior notice or an opportunity to contest the decision before their access was revoked.
Emphasizing established legal principles, Kelly stated that the U.S. government cannot strip an individual of a constitutionally protected interest without first providing them with the chance to present their case. The judge's judgment, obtained by CNN, mandates the immediate reinstatement of the affected outlets' access to the White House premises.
