United states President, Donald Trump, have prevented
journalists from Cable Network News (CNN), British Broadcasting Corporation
(BBC) and the New York Times from attending a briefing at the White House, the
New York Times reports.
Reporters from the three media were not allowed to enter the
West Wing office of the press secretary, Sean Spicer, for the scheduled
briefing; with aides to Mr. Spicer only allowing journalists that, the White
House said, had been previously confirmed to attend.
According to New York Times, organisations allowed included
Breitbart News, the One America News Network, The Washington Times, ABC, CBS,
The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, and Fox News.
The denial came a few hours after Mr. Trumped railed against
the media, saying there was a lot of “fake news” around and referring to CNN as
“Clinton News Network.”
