Trump says CNN, MS NOW, Politico banned from White House, ci

WASHINGTON, Sept. 18 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday that CNN, MS NOW (previously known as MSNBC) and Politico were banned from the White House "effective immediately," citing what he called fake news in a post on Truth Social.

"I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MS NOW (who recently changed their name from MSNBC due to lack of viewership and credibility!), and Politico (The recipients of an illegal and ridiculous $8 Million Dollar subscription, an All Time Record, directly from the United States Government, under Crooked Joe Biden, in order to keep them 'alive.' Seems like corruption to me!), from the White House as a result of their constant 'reporting' FAKE NEWS!" Trump wrote.

"Media Outlets shouldn't be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they're covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States of America," Trump said, warning that "Other Fake News Media Outlets" will follow.
