Major American TV networks have decided to ban coverage of President Trump in protest against the ban on entry of journalists from three major news organizations into the White House.
Fox News Media, ABC News, CBS News, NBC News and CNN issued a joint statement saying that while the public has a vital interest in receiving accurate and free information about the government, no administration should restrict news organizations simply because they criticize the administration.
This statement was issued at a time when the White House Pool said that the TV Pool (TV pool) will not cover President Trump’s pool coverage from today. And there will be no alternative to this pool.
The move comes in the wake of the White House’s relegation of CNN from its assigned responsibilities.
This unanimity has been expressed by various TV channels due to President Trump’s ban on CNN, MS Now and Politico reporters entering the White House.
The journalists of the three media organizations say that their entry documents to the White House have been canceled and they are not being allowed to enter the building.
President Trump did not indicate any specific news while closing the entry to the journalists of these three institutions. At the same time, it was also threatened that the doors of the White House can be closed on the journalists of other news organizations as well.
CNN, MSNow and Politico have also announced that they will file a lawsuit against the Trump administration against President Trump’s move.
President Trump also tried to defend the action against these media organizations in his statement on Monday.
President Trump said that the White House is not an attack on the free press, it is an attack on fake news that has spread like a cancer in America.
