Donald Trump put Mike Lindell’s LindellTV in CNN’s Air Force One slot for a planned Saturday trip to Tennessee and questioned on Truth Social why journalists should have White House access, days after a judge ordered press access restored for at least 14 days.
Trump had excluded CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House on Sept. 18, prompting the outlets to sue. Major cable networks then boycotted White House TV-pool duties while CNN was excluded; the pool briefly resumed Friday.
In his post, Trump called CNN and “MSDNC” perpetrators of “FAKE NEWS” and claimed almost 100% of coverage of him was negative. He also linked to a Just The News article about the ban.
