CNN, MS Now, and Politico have filed a lawsuit against President Donald Trump after he revoked their access to the White House on Friday. The outlets argue that blocking journalists' press passes violates First Amendment press freedom protections. In solidarity, ABC, CBS, Fox News, and NBC suspended their participation in the presidential press pool, refusing to cover Trump's upcoming trip to the United Nations. Trump responded via Truth Social, claiming the action targets "fake news" rather than the free press, which he described as corrupt and a national security threat. The three media organizations are seeking an emergency federal court ruling in Washington D.C. to reinstate their credentials.
