⚖️ The White House reinstated access for journalists from CNN, MS NOW and Politico after a federal judge ordered their credentials restored for 14 days. The reporters had initially remained blocked on 24 September before the White House said their badges were reactivated.
Judge Timothy Kelly found that the revocations were likely to violate constitutional due-process rights. The three outlets had sued after the administration barred them following Trump’s criticism of their coverage.
📰 The dispute also disrupted the White House television press pool. CNN was scheduled for pool duty, and other major broadcasters suspended pooled coverage rather than replace it, affecting the distribution of video and reports from presidential events.
The administration cited national-security concerns and said White House access was a privilege. The case will continue on an expedited schedule, with a preliminary-injunction hearing expected during the temporary restoration period.
