Networks Suspend White House TV Pool Coverage in Solidarity With Banned CNN
NBC, ABC, CBS and Fox News halt coverage as CNN, MS Now and Politico sue the Trump administration over the access ban.
According to the Guardian, NBC, ABC, CBS and Fox News — the other networks that make up the White House television pool — have suspended their coverage of President Trump in solidarity with CNN, which was banned from the White House last Friday.
CNN, along with MS Now and Politico, filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration on Monday in the US District Court for the District of Columbia. The outlets allege that Trump violated the First Amendment and due process by stripping them of White House access in what they describe as retaliation for coverage he disliked, the Guardian reported.
