On September 21, 2026, major US networks, including Fox News, ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, and CNN, announced a boycott of events featuring President Donald Trump. This decision was made in response to restrictions on access to the White House for certain media outlets, specifically CNN, MS NOW, and Politico.
Reasons for the Boycott
The boycott by the networks is a protest against the Trump administration's refusal to grant access to presidential events for some media. In particular, CNN, MS NOW, and Politico have been denied the opportunity to cover events at the White House, which has sparked outrage among the journalistic community.
Legal Actions Against the Trump Administration
In response to the access restrictions, CNN, MS NOW, and Politico have already filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration. These actions highlight the growing tension between the media and the government, as well as raising questions about the principles of freedom of speech and government transparency.
Public Reaction
The networks' boycott has generated significant public reaction. Many experts believe that such actions could have serious consequences for Trump's image and his administration, as the refusal to cover events may lead to a decline in his popularity among voters.
