  "summary": "CNN, MS Now, and Politico have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration after being denied access to the White House. The three news organizations claim that their journalists' press credentials were revoked without notice or process because the White House objected to their reporting.\n\nAccording to CNN, MS Now, and Politico, the move threatens press freedom and the public's right to independent journalism free from government interference. The outlets argue that the government does not have the right to decide what the press reports or publishes.\n\nThe lawsuit, filed in the US district court for Washington DC, aims to protect the outlets' First Amendment rights and restore their access to the White House. President Donald Trump had announced the ban on Friday, accusing the three organizations of reporting \"fiction and lies\" about his government.",
