Yes. On September 25–26, 2026, White House guidance left CNN off the media schedule for President Donald Trump’s Air Force One trip to Knoxville, Tennessee, where he was set to attend a University of Tennessee vs. University of Texas college football game. According to reporting based on that guidance, CNN was replaced by Real America’s Voice News for the rotational TV pool seat on the flight, even after a federal judge had temporarily restored CNN’s White House grounds access earlier that week. The court order addressed press passes to the White House complex and did not directly cover Air Force One pool assignments.
