The top five US television networks staged a revolt on Monday when they effectively boycotted coverage of President Donald Trump to protest his decision to ban three news outlets from the White House. "No administration should restrict a news organization because it objects to its reporting," ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox and NBC said in a joint statement.
In a rare move, the top five US broadcasters said on Monday that they were halting "pool" coverage of the White House – where a broadcaster films on behalf of all television outlets for the day – in solidarity with CNN.
