CNN, MS NOW and Politico reporters barred from White House after Trump ban

White House correspondents for CNN, MS NOW and Politico were blocked on Saturday from entering the president's office and residence, a day after President Donald Trump announced he was barring the three outlets over what he called "fake news" coverage. The outlets denounced the move as an unconstitutional violation of press freedom and are expected to take the ban to court to regain access. News organisations and press freedom groups also slammed the decision as illegal.
