Major US outlets boycott shared Trump coverage in protest at media ban
Regular coverage of the president has been disrupted after he banned CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House.
Trump's comments at a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Monday were streamed by the White House but were inaudible
Major US television networks suspended their pooled coverage of President Donald Trump on Monday in response to CNN, Politico and MS NOW being barred from the White House.
Trump announced the ban on Friday as he accused the organisations of writing "fiction or lies" about his administration. The companies said their reporters were denied access to the building on Saturday.
The president did later appear on television following a meeting with the Mayor of New York Zohran Mamdani. He told the president that all members of the media would be welcome at the press conference.
