  "summary": "A US federal judge has ordered the White House to restore access for journalists from CNN, MSNBC and Politico. The three media outlets had been banned from covering White House events by President Donald Trump last week.\n\nThe ban was announced by Trump on September 18, and the outlets had launched a legal challenge, calling it unconstitutional. US District Judge Tim Kelly issued a temporary restraining order, reinstating the outlets' press passes for 14 days.\n\nAccording to the judge, the Trump administration failed to provide factual support for its claim that the ban was motivated by national security concerns. The judge noted that Trump himself stated the ban was due to the outlets' \"alleged lack of truthfulness and negativity\" in their reporting.",
