CNN、MS NOW和Politico三家媒体因被特朗普政府禁止进入白宫而提起诉讼13。这些媒体声称该禁令违反了第一修正案和新闻自由原则1。特朗普政府在撤销记者证件时"没有通知或程序"1,被控在助手纳塔莉·哈普向特朗普展示负面新闻报道后实施了这一禁令2。
作为回应,包括ABC、CBS、Fox News和NBC在内的其他主要电视网络暂停了白宫电视集团的覆盖工作以示声援1。白宫电视集团由ABC、CBS、CNN、Fox News和NBC组成1,这些网络拒绝填补被禁媒体在白宫记者池中留下的空缺2。特朗普政府则声称1"我们不是针对自由媒体,而是针对假新闻"。媒体方面在诉讼中主张1"公众有获得关于其政府的准确、独立信息的重要利益。任何政府都不应因反对媒体的报道而限制新闻机构。"该事件引发了关于白宫记者池制度和宪法第一修正案保护范围的广泛争议23。
Three major American news organizations—CNN, MS NOW, and Politico—have filed lawsuits challenging a ban that prohibits them from accessing the White House.13 The outlets contend that the Trump administration's decision violates First Amendment protections and the principle of press freedom.1 According to the administration, Trump stated: "We are not going after free media, we are going after fake news."1
The ban resulted in the revocation of press credentials without notice or due process.1 Following the prohibited outlets' legal action, major television networks including ABC, CBS, Fox News, and NBC have suspended their participation in White House pool coverage as a show of solidarity.1 The White House Television Pool, composed of ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News, and NBC, had been assigned to cover Trump's travel to the United Nations General Assembly.1 The networks' decision to halt pool operations means there is no alternative collective reporting arrangement in place.1
The dispute raises fundamental constitutional questions about government authority over press access.13 A statement from the news organizations emphasized that "the public has a vital interest in obtaining accurate, independent information about its government" and argued that "no government should restrict news organizations because it opposes their coverage."1
