## Resource

The White House just slapped a ban on CNN, MSNBC, and Politico—calling their reporting “fake news”—and warned more outlets could follow. This isn’t the first time Trump’s targeted media: he previously barred AP journalists in 2025, sparking an ongoing lawsuit. With the traditional press pool now at risk, this move threatens to disrupt how the public gets independent coverage of the President’s actions—especially as he heads into a major press event with no clear plan for enforcement.
