  "account": "President Donald Trump's dispute with major US media outlets, including CNN, MSNBC, and Politico, continues to escalate. On Monday, the three news organizations filed lawsuits against the US government, claiming their access to the White House was revoked by the president. These media houses appealed to the First Amendment of the US Constitution, which guarantees freedom of the press and speech. Other news outlets expressed solidarity with the three, including several members of the White House TV Pool, such as CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox News. The five networks traditionally share the live video reporting of the president and exchange materials with other media. Since the suspended CNN was responsible for filming on Monday, the other four networks intentionally did not send a replacement crew and skipped the event. Plans for reporting on Trump's trip to the UN General Assembly in New York this week are also affected, as CNN was scheduled to cover it. Fox News joined the boycott, noting that the broadcaster was particularly close to Trump. President Trump accused the media of spreading \"fiction and lies\" and threatened further boycotts if the trend continued. Media organizations like the New York Times and Washington Post also halted their photo reporting in protest. Trump justified the ban on CNN, MSNBC, and Politico as a result of biased reporting, threatening more \"Fake News\" outlets to follow. Despite claiming to uphold free press, Trump accused the affected media houses of being a \"threat to our national security.\" The White House launched its own online channel, \"Trump TV,\" on Monday evening with a livestream featuring the president's speeches and US military exercises. The livestream will run 24/7, showcasing the best moments from the past, announcements, and the government's latest news. However, there are no plans for Trump's appearances or journalistic content at this stage. The lawsuit against the White House by CNN, MSNBC, and Politico is a motion for an emergency injunction, and a final decision from a federal court is still pending. This dispute is not the first time Trump has attempted to censor unfavorable media; he previously barred the AP news agency from traveling with the press corps over renaming the Gulf of Mexico, which was ordered by Trump. AP is contesting the legal proceedings. Trump's campaign against other media outlets, including the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and the BBC, has been ongoing since his inauguration, with previous attempts at the federal level to revoke reporters' accreditation failing. Politico, owned by the conservative German media conglomerate Axel Springer, had already stated on Friday that it would continue to report fairly on the government and fight any press freedom restrictions with all legal means. Trump has accused Politico of receiving government subsidies, which the outlet refuted.",
