Reporter Mark on US Media Boycott: 'Trump Does Not Know the Feeling of Being Shut Out'
Foreign reporter Mark van Assen states that President Donald Trump did not anticipate a unified media boycott after banning CNN, Politico, and MS NOW from the White House due to allegations of spreading fake news. Van Assen explains that despite Trump's public hostility toward mainstream media, he remains addicted to its coverage and lacks experience with being ignored. Other outlets, including Fox News, joined the protest on principle, while Trump launched a hastily created alternative channel to limit damage. Legal challenges are expected to succeed, though Trump is likely to appeal and spin any ruling in his favor.
