Court orders White House to reinstate banned outlets
A U.S. federal judge ordered the White House to reinstate credentials for CNN, MSNBC, and Politico after the Trump administration had revoked their access to cover its activities, considering that the unprecedented withdrawal of these credentials violated their constitutional rights to freedom of the press. Trump had previously issued a decision to bar these outlets from coverage as part of a punitive measure for publishing reports he claimed were false or sensitive. However, the court ruled that access to the White House is a right, not a privilege, and that it had been unlawfully infringed upon.
