Trump slams CNN, MSNBC for skipping Xi's White House arrival

timesofindia.indiatimes.com —

President Donald Trump accused CNN and MSNBC of refusing to cover Chinese President Xi Jinping's White House arrival to avoid giving him credit, citing their declining ratings and alleged lack of credibility. In a Truth Social post, Trump praised the Xi visit as a major event and criticized the outlets for not broadcasting it, while a federal judge ordered the administration to restore White House access for CNN, MSNBC, and Politico, ruling the ban likely unconstitutional. The ban stemmed from Trump's earlier decision to bar the three outlets over "fake news" reporting, with the judge citing due process requirements and the outlets filing suit to defend press freedom principles.
