Yes. On Monday, September 21, 2026, CNN, MS NOW, and Politico filed a federal lawsuit in Washington, D.C., asking a judge to restore their reporters’ White House access after President Donald Trump barred the three outlets from the complex.
The outlets argue the ban is viewpoint discrimination that violates the First Amendment and due process, and they sought an immediate temporary restraining order. A hearing on that motion was scheduled for Wednesday.
