TV networks to resume coverage of Trump events, CNN says

The five-network pool returned after a federal judge restored access to CNN, MS NOW and Politico, ending several days without shared presidential footage.

  • On Friday, CNN and CBS resumed White House press coverage after a federal judge ordered the administration to immediately restore access, overturning a ban President Donald Trump imposed last week over coverage he labeled false or negative.
  • A federal judge reinstated access midday on Thursday, deeming the administration's ban on the news organizations likely unconstitutional, ending the restriction Trump had enforced from the complex.
  • The White House television press pool had refused to operate in solidarity with CNN, resulting in no coverage of Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to Washington until the ban lifted.
  • CNN reporter Kristen Holmes confirmed the network will cover President Trump's Friday tour of the National Archives alongside Xi Jinping, with CBS providing the pool camera for the event.
  • The First Amendment case continues to wind through U.S. courts despite the immediate restoration of access, as networks ABC, FOX News, and NBC, alongside CNN and CBS, share responsibility for rotating pool footage.
