CNN, MS NOW denied access to White House after Trump ‘ban’
- On Saturday morning, MS NOW journalists were denied access to the White House grounds, a day after President Donald Trump announced a ban on the network, CNN, and Politico citing "fake news."
- The White House began enforcing the "ban" Trump declared "effective immediately" on Friday, though journalists from the affected outlets remained on the complex through that evening.
- MS NOW White House correspondent Akayla Gardner said an officer disabled her badge upon arrival, forcing her to report live from outside the perimeter after being denied entry.
- Protesting the exclusion, the network released a statement Saturday asserting the White House belongs to the American people and intending to defend its First Amendment rights.
- This latest action marks a significant escalation in Trump's long-running efforts to restrict news coverage by journalists he finds objectionable, serving as the latest test of First Amendment protections in the U.S.
