A federal judge has ruled against the Associated Press' plea to regain access to certain events involving President Donald Trump. US District Judge Trevor McFadden rejected the AP's request to temporarily lift a ban imposed by Trump earlier this month.
The ban was a consequence of the AP's decision to persist in using the term 'Gulf of Mexico' despite Trump's renaming of the body of water to 'Gulf of America.' The dispute over the naming convention led to the AP losing its privileges to cover events in the Oval Office and travel on Air Force One.
