Trump bans CNN, MSNBC and Politico from White House, citing "fake news"

President Donald Trump said CNN, MSNBC and Politico will no longer be allowed into the White House press area. He accused the outlets of reporting "fake news." The move targets three major news organizations that cover the White House daily. It is unclear how the ban will work in practice or how long it will last. Press access for major outlets is normally decided through a formal process. Banning specific organizations is highly unusual. Representatives for CNN, MSNBC and Politico have not yet responded.
