A federal judge has ordered the White House to restore full access to The Associated Press (AP) to report on presidential events, almost two months after the news agency was banned by US President Donald Trump for refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America in its reports.
On Tuesday, United States District Judge Trevor N McFadden, who was appointed by President Trump, ruled that it would be a violation of the US Constitution’s First Amendment free speech rights if the government discriminates against news organisations for the content of their reports.
