The first real case is Sherril Vs. Knight. Without getting to deep into it, it basically decided that the administration doesnt have to hold press briefings but if it does it needs to make them open to bona fide news outlets, and restrictions need to be based on 'compelling reasons' and not arbitrarily.

Subsequent cases have held close to that. The administration is not without discretion but it also can't exclude outlets or restrict press passes based on the outlets editorial viewpoint.

This round of exclusions will be challenged in court and the Whitehouse will have a really hard time defending it. It doesnt help that Trump has openly stated the restrictions are for reasons prior cases have found aren't legal.

Trump stated this was due to their deceptive and false reporting, then provided a long list of deceptive and false reporting by CNN. That sounds like it is evidence based vs the MSM's "without evidence" mantra.

No room for anyone new without throwing someone out.

Maybe Trump should promise to move the press conferences into the new ballroom.
Then everyone who claims to be 'news' could get in.

And FYI, USA ( and other countries) have done the same with  acceptable collateral damage to civilians show in the  documentary NAZA time and time again, when sending in cruse missiles into villages to terminate a single person on the matrix disposition list.

Exactly.

The 4 years of the “Russia Hoax” bullshit, the Rittenhouse reporting, the lies about “Very fine people”, the Covington Catholic highschool student they tried to ruin his life, the covid censorship on their platforms, the bullshit cases against Trump, the absolute farce of January 6 coverage, banning a sitting US President off of social media, the lies and coverup of Hunter Biden’s laptop, “fiery but mostly peaceful” riots in 2020, the gaslighting around Biden’s mental condition and total acceptance of Biden having cheat sheets with journalist names, questions and answers already on a card, never heckling Biden like they do to Trump.

So yeah, they can fuck right off and still use their first amendment rights to peddle their bullshit….just not from the front row of the whitehouse briefing room.

Itll be up to judges, but none of that likely passes the legal tests for what are valid reasons to bar news outlets from press briefings. It hasn't in the past, anyway. What they publish, regardless of veracity, is protected first amendment speech.

The language in the landmark case is 'requires that this access not be denied arbitrarily or for less than compelling reasons.' It goes on to cite cases that help define that, but it essentially boils down to security threats. Moreover, whatever the reason the process used has to be documented and adhered to, which doesn’t seem to be the case here.

Contrary to popular wisdom there's no real obligation that the press publishes pure fact, or that is must do so with balance. Freedom of the press means that, with some narrow exceptions, a news outlet can report the news as they see it, which is not nessecarily the way the Whitehouse sees it.

Does that help?

When considering things written about public figures, like the president, the bar for proving things like libel is extraordinarily high. I can't see how anything CNN or whoever has written about him is remotely close to anything like illegal. It might be incorrect, but that doesn't actually matter. Reporting the news is still first amendment protected speech.

It isn't remotely that simple. This has been tried in court several times over the span of decades and the courts have found consistently that if the Whitehouse is going to have press briefings it can't bar specific news outlets or specific reporters from those without good reason because of 1st and 5th amendment issues. Not liking what they report isn't good enough. Alleging that the news being reported isn't factual isn't good enough.

If the administration wants to take this court they can, but they'll probably loose.

Until this administration, the press pool schedule was a managed by the WHCA. Like many here, you don’t have a clue about the constitutional implications of this foolish move. Trumph knows well and good that what he did here is not constitutional, and won’t hold up in court. He simply doesn’t care. His goal with this move on a Friday afternoon was to change and control the news cycle. He was successful in that goal.

So yeah, they can fuck right off and still use their first amendment rights to peddle their bullshit….just not from the front row of the whitehouse briefing room.

The court blocks this then the press conferences go to Cspan video conferences. everyone gets equal access that way.

What I would do is remove most of the seats in the press room, leaving about 15.  Then before every press conference, randomly generate the press outlets who will be granted admission.

It's fair and avoids the cherry-picking.


Gosh, sort of like the press pool system already in place.


Except, it's not, is it?

The WH press office specifically chooses whit outlets are given access.  And now, the President himself is involved in making those decisions.  As evidence, may I offer the OP to this thread?

I can't tell if you're agreeing with me or arguing for my position in a passive aggressive manner.

Either way, you seem to agree with me that it's foolish (Me: "I'm not a fan of this") and that this administration explicitly chooses the press outlets that are granted admission.

I agree that it's unconstitutional, hence why I said I'm not a fan of it and you said it's foolish.

So, well done, sir?
