TV Networks to Resume Trump Coverage Despite CNN Exclusion
Original: TV Networks to Resume Trump Coverage, Even as White House Excludes CNN
Major US television networks are set to resume covering President Trump after the White House TV pool went dark during a standoff between the administration and CNN, which the White House has excluded from coverage arrangements. Network leaders concluded that an indefinite suspension of pooled coverage would be untenable, even as CNN remains shut out, prompting debate over press access and the precedent of penalising a single outlet.
Why now: The White House standoff with CNN raises press-freedom concerns, and the networks' decision to resume coverage resolves the pool blackout while leaving the exclusion in place.
