Live updates: CNN, MS NOW, Politico say journalists were denied from White House grounds; AI companies hit with new lawsuit

Less than 24 hours after President Trump said he would bar certain news organizations from White House premises, CNN, MS NOW and Politico each reported that their journalists were denied entry to White House grounds. According to the outlets, staff who attempted to access the grounds were turned away following the president's declaration.

President Trump had announced the ban, saying he was taking the step because those organizations had produced what he described as "purposefully negative stories." The network and outlets later publicly said their reporters were not allowed onto the grounds. Details about how the denials were implemented or by which White House offices were not provided in the available material.

The reports come amid heightened tensions between the administration and several media organizations. The incident raises questions about the status of press credentials and access for journalists accredited to cover the White House, though the supplied information does not include responses from the White House or any official policy change documentation.

The headline also referenced a separate item that "AI companies hit with new lawsuit," but no further details on that legal action were included in the material provided. Additional reporting would be needed to describe the parties, claims, or scope of that lawsuit.
