  "summary": "The White House has barred CNN from flying aboard Air Force One for President Donald Trump's trip to Tennessee. According to NPR, this is the latest media restriction in an ongoing dispute with First Amendment implications. The White House's daily guidance and press schedule for Saturday listed RAV as the secondary television correspondent and crew for the out-of-town travel pool, but did not name CNN or another outlet as the primary television pool member, as reported by Free Press Journal.\n\nCNN had been scheduled to fly aboard the president's plane as part of the White House TV press pool, a rotating group of journalists that covers the president in locations where space is limited and shares the information and video gathered with other television networks. The move has been seen as a restriction on CNN, which has been critical of President Trump in the past.\n\nThe White House's decision to exclude CNN from the trip has been reported by several outlets, including The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald, which noted that CNN continues to bear the ire of the US president.",
