CNN seeks restored access to White House after denial

CNN reporter Betsy Klein and a photojournalist were denied access to the White House grounds after multiple attempts, with no reason provided for the refusal and CNN will continue to try to gain access.

Federal Judge Timothy Kelly has ordered the Trump administration to temporarily reinstate CNN, MS NOW, and Politico’s access to the White House after they were banned from the premises by President Donald Trump. CNN’s Brian Stelter explains the ruling and what it means for press freedom.

The ruling is expected to restore media coverage and improve the flow of information between the White House and the national press. CNN will pursue further steps to secure long‑term access for its reporters and photojournalists.
