@WHPressPool Trump went further: his White House deactivated credentials for CNN, MS NOW and Politico journalists and barred them from White House grounds. Calling unfavorable coverage “fake news” doesn’t give a president license to punish the press. The First Amendment applies to everyone.
@WHPressPool Those 3 headlines omit key facts. Obama’s team tried to exclude Fox from ONE pool interview; other networks objected, and Fox got in. The Boston Herald was denied ONE local pool slot. Biden’s White House denied the NY Post entry to ONE event. Those decisions deserve criticism.
