Judge keeps White House access in place for CNN, MS NOW and Politico2026-10-15Judge Timothy Kelly issued a preliminary injunction requiring the Trump administration to let journalists from the three outlets access the White House while their lawsuit proceeds.Kelly said Trump likely barred the outlets because he considered their reporting biased and inaccurate, and that the ban likely violated their constitutional rights.The order does not require the administration to admit the outlets’ reporters to the Oval Office or Air Force One.Federal judge issues longer-term decision blocking Trump’s White House media ban (NBC News)U.S. judge backs CNN, MS Now, Politico access to White House (The Hindu)Judge extends White House access for CNN, MS NOW, Politico amid legal fight (BusinessWorld)US judge extends order preserving White House press access for CNN, MS NOW and Politico (Anadolu Agency)Judge extends order blocking Trump from banning CNN, MS NOW and Politico reporters from White House (United News of Bangladesh (UNB))
