President Trump announced on Truth Social that he intends to ban three news outlets, accusing them of spreading "FICTION and LIES"
President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he is banning MS NOW, CNN and Politico from the White House, according to a report from CNBC.
In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump accused the outlets of publishing "fake news" and said they should not be permitted to spread "FICTION and LIES," CNBC reported.
The announcement continues a pattern of Trump publicly criticizing mainstream media organizations, which he has frequently accused of biased or inaccurate coverage.
CNBC's report did not specify the exact mechanism by which the ban would be enforced or when it would take effect. It was also not immediately clear how the outlets would respond to the announcement.
MS NOW, CNN and Politico had not issued public statements on the matter at the time of CNBC's report.
This is a developing story, and further details may emerge as the outlets and the White House respond to the announcement.
