  "account": "US President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he has banned CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from having any access to the White House, effective immediately. In a post on Truth Social, Trump labeled these networks as \"fake news\" and specifically criticized MS NOW for changing its name from MSNBC due to low viewership and credibility issues. The president emphasized that media outlets should not be allowed to \"constantly write or report FICTION and LIES\" while covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States in general. Trump also accused Politico of receiving a staggering $8 million in illegal and unprecedented government funding under President Joe Biden to keep the outlet afloat, calling it \"corruption.\" He hinted that there would be more \"Fake News Media Outlets\" to come under his administration's scrutiny.",
  "summary": "Trump added that there would be \"other Fake News Media Outlets to follow.\"",
