Judge orders White House access restored for CNN, MS NOW, Politico NZ Herald
A federal judge ordered US President Donald Trump on Thursday to restore White House access for journalists from CNN, MS NOW and Politico, saying his ban on the three media outlets was likely unconstitutional. In a major setback for Trump in one of his biggest battles with the media, US District Judge Tim Kelly issued his order in a lawsuit that the news organisations filed contesting the ban that the Republican president announced on September 18. Kelly ordered the Trump administration to immediately return the outlets’ press passes and blocked officials from enforcing the ban for 14 days. The judge rejected the government’s assertion that the ban was motivated by national security concerns. “The record lacks factual support for defendant’s contention that the revocation of plaintiffs’ hard passes will in fact protect national security or that national security will be endangered if the court orders their passes reinstated while this litigation proceeds,” he said, adding that Trump himself had stated the ban was due to “alleged lack of truthfulness and negativity” of the outlets’ reporting. The White House and representatives for the outlets did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Trump had said on social media that the three outlets “shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES,” and Justice Department lawyers had sought to justify the ban on national security grounds. The three outlets sued Trump and other members of his administration in federal court in Washington on Monday, saying the ban violated the US Constitution’s First Amendment protections for free speech and a free press, as well as their due process rights. They requested a temporary restraining order that would immediately reinstate their White House access while their legal challenge plays out. The legal battle has unfolded just weeks before the Nov 3 midterm elections in which Trump’s fellow Republicans are fighting to retain control of Congress. Trump’s job approval ratings are at record lows in opinion polls amid concerns over issues such as the Iran war and inflation. Kelly said at a Wednesday hearing that two precedents from the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit made clear that journalists are entitled to due process before their White House press passes can be revoked. The judge added that it did not appear that the White House had given the targeted news outlets a meaningful opportunity to contest the revocation of their access. A lawyer for the news outlets told Kelly that they were banned without legally required advance notice or opportunity to contest the decisions, which he said were unprecedented, unreasonable and severe punishments. A Justice Department lawyer told the judge the Trump administration provided a sufficient explanation for the revocation of the press passes in letters sent to the news outlets on Tuesday. But the judge signalled scepticism of that argument, noting that the letters were sent after the revocation occurred and the lawsuit was filed. In a legal filing on Tuesday, the Justice Department argued that access to the White House is a privilege, not an entitlement, and that the president has the authority to suspend access by news organisations. A coalition of press freedom groups and dozens of news organisations filed a legal brief on Wednesday supporting the three news outlets. They asserted that “stripping journalists and news outlets of their rights because of perceived editorial viewpoint violates decades of Supreme Court jurisprudence.” The brief was signed by the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, Reuters, the Washington Post and Fox News, among others.

A federal judge said Donald Trump’s ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico was likely to be unconstitutional.
The US Washington DC Federal District Court ordered the Trump administration to immediately revoke its ban on access to the White House for major media outlets such as CNN, Politico, and MSN. The court ruled that the removal of journalists' credentials without proper legal procedures constitutes a constitutional violation. On April 24 (local time), Judge Timothy Kelly of the Washington DC Federal District Court ruled that the Trump administration had revoked journalists' press credentials without providing prior notice or an opportunity to present their views, violating the 'due process' protected by the Constitution. In his ruling, Judge Kelly emphasized that it is a general principle that the government must provide prior notice and an opportunity for the affected party to present their views before depriving someone of a constitutional right. Earlier this month, on April 18, President Trump abruptly banned access to the White House for three media outlets—CNN, MSN, and Politico—on the grounds that they reported fake news. President Trump stated on his Truth Social platform, 'The White House is not attacking the freedom of the press that I value,' and added, 'The White House is not'
