White House blocks reporters after judge halts Trump media ban

dn.se (Swedish) —

Reporters from Politico, MS Now, and CNN were denied access to the White House on Thursday, shortly after a judge temporarily blocked Donald Trump's exclusion of specific media outlets. The journalists were reportedly turned away at the entrance. Trump's decision to ban certain media from the White House was made last Friday, prompting the news organizations to file a constitutional lawsuit. Following the judge's block, Politico's reporter reportedly had their press credentials revoked. MS Now reporter Laura Barrón-Lopéz stated it is unclear whether she was denied entry despite the judge's ruling or if the issue stems from problems with the entry system on Thursday.
