  "summary": "President Trump banned certain news organizations, including CNN, from the White House. In response, other TV networks suspended their coverage of the president's daily activities in protest. This left Trump without audio on his own White House video feed, according to The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age.\n\nThe Hill reports that Trump's move to withdraw White House press credentials for three news organizations triggered a unified response from television networks. They announced they would not cover the president's daily activities while the ban on the trio remains in place.\n\nThe White House press pool has become a battleground over free speech rights between Trump and the media. Trump has taken steps at the White House, including unveiling a new helicopter landing pad, while trying to downplay the controversy, as reported by PBS NewsHour.",
