White House Launches Trump TV Amid Escalating Press Access Fight

The White House created a new internet video channel called Trump TV.

It runs all day and night and shows speeches, announcements and other videos about President Donald Trump and his administration.

The first videos included earlier public appearances and Trump’s inauguration.

At the same time, CNN, Politico and MS NOW lost access to the White House.

The three organizations sued the administration and asked a court to restore that access.

Several major television networks also stopped sharing a joint video feed of presidential events.

The White House says news organizations may still publish stories but do not automatically have access to White House facilities.

The news organizations say the government should not punish them for how they report.

A court is expected to consider their request during the dispute.
