Major TV networks to halt shared video coverage of Trump over CNN ban
- On Monday, the White House television pool stopped covering President Donald Trump after the administration banned CNN from participating, leaving events without video coverage during his trip to the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
- President Trump previously banned CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House, with reporters from all three publications turned away on Saturday, prompting other networks to take action in solidarity.
- Five major networks—ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, and Fox News—traditionally share pool responsibility on a rotating basis, providing live footage to the wider press corps; CNN was scheduled as primary network for the New York trip.
- Pool chair Bryan Boughton of Fox News confirmed on Monday that no replacement pool will be put in place, stating, "Effective today, the TV pool will not be covering events designated as pool coverage of the President."
- CNN, MSNOW, and Politico are preparing a First Amendment lawsuit against the White House, asserting, "We have a right under the U.S. Constitution to do our reporting without hindrance or interference from the government and this ban is an illegal assault on this fundamental right.
