  "summary": "US President Donald Trump has banned major US media outlets CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from accessing the White House, according to a post on his Truth Social platform. In the announcement, Trump accused these outlets of spreading fake news, stating that they report \"fiction and lies\" about the President, his administration, and the United States. While the president did not specify the reasons behind the ban, he emphasized that media outlets should not be allowed to constantly report \"fiction and lies\" when covering him or the country. Trump also hinted that other media outlets may face similar restrictions in the future, without naming any specific outlets.",
