CNN, MS NOW, and Politico have initiated legal action against the Trump administration. The lawsuit claims the administration’s actions represent a “direct assault on the First Amendment.” This comes after CNN was removed from its position in the rotating pool of TV journalists covering the White House.
The pool of TV journalists announced that there would be no replacement for CNN to cover President Trump’s visit to New York for the UN General Assembly. The decision has sparked concerns about press freedom and access to White House events.
