Trump Expands White House Media Ban to POLITICO, CNN and MSNBC

President Trump said on Truth Social that POLITICO, CNN, and MSNBC would be barred from sending journalists to the White House, accusing them of 'fake news' and endless negative reporting. The move sharpens his long-running clash with the media; POLITICO and CNN defended press freedom and their reporting, while MSNBC declined to comment. The White House has taken prior access-restriction steps against other outlets, and critics warn this could threaten constitutional protections for a free press.
