“New restriction” – Trump excluded editors from flight to the middle east

Date:

US President Donald Trump has excluded news agencies from a flight to the Middle East and the Golden Region. The editors do not include in the government plane are an unprecedented step, said the Independent Reporter Association of the White House (WHCA).

Offices such as Associated Press (AP), Reuters and Bloomberg would deliver thousands of news media and in this way reach millions of readers around the world. “The WHCA is concerned about this new limitation of the circle of those who can report on the White House and about the constant retribution for independent editorial decisions,” said it.

In the United States, the president is accompanied by the so -called correspondent pool in public performances that share their information with the other colleagues. When you travel abroad, a small group of journalists is usually also on board the president’s plane. For years, representatives of television, radio, printed media, news sports and agencies were in this pool.

Dispute about Gulf of Mexico
The White House had already limited access to this important circle in mid -April. The AP agent was previously excluded from events in the White House. The background is the refusal to use the renamation of the Gulf of Mexico in “Golf of America”. The places in the swimming pool must now rotate to print journalists and desk. Trump’s spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt has the last word in the selection. The issue of the WHCA was before Trump’s attack on Trump.

Instead, the new government granted countless right -wing media, influencers privileged access to the White House. These often ask Trump critically about press conferences.
