US President Donald Trump has barred certain news organisations from the White House after he found them to be "fake news". Now, CNN, MS NOW and Politico have filed a lawsuit over being denied White House access. The lawsuit calls the administration's move a "blatant violation" of the First Amendment. Other networks have stepped up in solidarity, suspending their shared coverage of the president. At a ribbon-cutting ceremony on September 21, the White House was forced to broadcast the event itself, with the audience barely able to hear Trump.
