Several US news networks reportedly boycott coverage of Donald Trump after the White House orders bar certain outlets from access. According to NDTV, the revolt follows a Friday order related to coverage restrictions, prompting networks to suspend or reduce coverage as a form of protest.
NDTV also reports that multiple outlets pursue legal action. CNN, MSNBC and Politico are said to have gone to court after the order, framing the dispute as part of a wider conflict between Trump and the US media.
In NDTV’s coverage, Trump responds to the backlash as he continues a long-running campaign critical of news organizations. The outlets and the White House are presented as having competing views on media access and the scope of any restrictions, with the court challenge acting as the primary avenue for resolving the dispute.
