The White House is barring CNN from flying on Air Force One as the network's turn in the rotating pool that covers the president on behalf of the major television networks. CNN says the exclusion came as Trump travelled to Tennessee. The move is being read as an escalation in the administration's conflict with the network over coverage.
Why now: The White House is excluding a major network from presidential press pool duties amid ongoing tensions over media access.
