Trump bans media from entering the White House: Reporter reveals what awaits them
Predsjednik Donaldd Trump objavio je odluku o zabrani pristupa Bijeloj kući za televizijske mreže CNN i MSNOW (bivši MSNBC), te portal Politico, 's trenutnim učinkom'. Odluka je proizašla iz njegovog optužbi protiv tih medija za širenje lažnih vijesti o njemu, njegovoj administraciji i Sjedinjenim Državama. Mediji su reagovali s opozoravanjem na slobodu medija, tvrdeći da ovo predstavlja nezakonito kršenje američkog ustava. Novinarka MSNOW-a, Akayla Gardner, opisala je kako joj je akreditacija za ulazak u Bijelu kuću prestala da funkcioniše. Odluka može biti osporena na sudu, dok su prethodno Trumpove napade na medije bile često izraženi i na sudu, na njegovoj društvenoj mreži Truth Social i verbalno.
U.S. President Donald Trump announced Friday that he has banned access to the White House for television networks CNN and MSNOW (formerly MSNBC) and online publication Politico, effective immediately. Trump made the announcement on his social media platform Truth Social, stating that the ban was imposed due to the constant dissemination of false information by these media outlets about him, his administration, or the United States. "Media should not be allowed to continuously publish or report on inventions and lies when reporting on the president of the United States, the Trump administration, or the United States," Trump wrote. He warned that other media organizations spreading false information would face similar restrictions. The move comes amid ongoing tensions between Trump and the press, with the president frequently criticizing journalists and media outlets whose coverage he finds unfavorable. This includes legal battles, public statements on his social media platform, and direct confrontations during interviews. Reporters from CNN and MSNOW confirmed Saturday that they had been denied access to the White House complex following Trump's announcement. Akayla Gardner, a correspondent for MSNOW based at the White House, stated that her accreditation card, necessary for entry into the White House complex, failed to scan and displayed a red light. She noted that this was the first time such access had been denied to her organization. A spokesperson for CNN told AFP that reporters were also denied access to the White House complex. The spokesperson emphasized that the U.S. Constitution guarantees the right of journalists to perform their work without interference or obstruction by the government, adding that this ban represents an illegal violation of that fundamental right. The White House did not comment further on the decision beyond directing inquiries to Trump’s Friday statement. This follows previous instances where Trump has restricted access to certain media outlets, including banning the Associated Press from entering the Oval Office after the network refused to adopt the term "American Gulf" for the Gulf of Mexico. Legal challenges are anticipated against the new restrictions, with critics arguing that the move undermines press freedom. The decision adds to growing concerns over the relationship between the presidency and the media, particularly as the 2026 midterm elections approach. Trump has repeatedly called for media outlets to cease broadcasting content he considers critical or mocking of himself or his administration. Additionally, he has urged the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to revoke licenses from broadcasters who air critical reports. The impact of this latest action on the media landscape and its potential effects on the upcoming elections remain unclear. However, it underscores the deepening divide between the Trump administration and segments of the press corps.
U petak, američki predsjednik Donald Trump objavio je da je donio zabranu pristupa Bijeloj kući za televizijske mreže CNN i MSNOW (bivši MSNBC), kao i za portal Politico, s trenutnim učinkom. Trump je na svojoj društvenoj mreži Truth Social napisao da zabrana vrijedi zbog stalnog širenja lažnih vijesti o njemu, njegovoj administraciji i Sjedinjenim Državama. Navelio je da mediji ne bi smjeli biti dopušteni da objavljuju izmišljotine i laže u vezi s predsjednikom. Dodao je da će slijediti i drugi mediji koji šire lažne informacije.
