️🇺🇸 The Trump administration began enforcing President Donald Trump's ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico at the White House, with reporters from the outlets denied access to the compound.
MS NOW reporter Akila Gardner and a photographer were suspended this morning after their serious offenses were dismissed. Politico reporter Cheyenne Haslett was also reportedly denied entry, with the Secret Service confiscating her White House pass.
Trump announced the bans on Friday, accusing the three outlets of publishing "fake news" and "fiction and lies."
The move raised legal and press freedom concerns over whether the administration could restrict access to journalists based on their coverage.
