A US federal judge ordered the White House to immediately restore access for CNN, MS NOW, and Politico journalists, whom Donald Trump had banned from working there.
Consensus
- A U.S. federal judge ruled that Donald Trump's ban on journalists from CNN, MSNBC (MS NOW), and Politico accessing the White House was unlawful.
- The judge ordered the White House administration to temporarily restore press access for these three media outlets.
- The temporary order was issued for 14 days while the case is under review.
- The ban was challenged in court by the affected media organizations, who argued it violated the First Amendment.
