President Donald Trump told reporters on Tuesday that he had already expected banned outlets to appear at the United Nations General Assembly. “I knew that would happen!” he said as he argued again for keeping certain news organizations out of White House coverage.
According to Mediaite, the five networks that form the White House press pool, CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox News, and CNN, said Monday they would work together to suspend pool coverage of the president. They described the move as a response to the White House ban on CNN, MS NOW, and Politico.
