  "summary": "CNN, MS NOW, and Politico have petitioned a federal judge to extend a block on White House bans imposed by President Donald Trump over their coverage he deems unfavorable. The news outlets have requested a court order to preserve their access while contesting Trump's decision to ban them. U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly had previously issued a 14-day temporary restraining order blocking the bans, citing potential violations of the news outlets' rights to fair legal treatment under the First Amendment. The outlets argue that Trump's bans constitute unlawful viewpoint discrimination under the Constitution, while the Justice Department maintains that the bans were lawful, as the outlets' coverage allegedly threatened national security by disclosing classified information. Trump has accused the outlets of spreading \"FAKE NEWS\" and \"FICTION and LIES\" and has personally sued several media organizations for defamation.",
