Trump bans CNN, MS NOW and Politico from White House ‘effective immediately’ in latest blast at media

The action follows a history of media restrictions by various administrations and could lead to legal challenges. This decision represents an escalation in the presidency's relationship with specific news organizations.
The action, which if imposed would spark lawsuits, follows years of more selective discrimination against outlets by both Democratic and Republican administrations, which limited access to events but stopped short of a ban on working from Whtie House grounds.
