"Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office."

Will CNN defend the Constitution or will you defend a fascist?
And, they’re exposing the violation of first ammendment rights.
ZOMBIE FOURTH ESTATE DID THIS TO US. THERE WILL BE NO FORGIVENESS.
Boycott his daily ramblings and he will fold.
Besides he lies about everything anyway.
*if you live under a dictator
Even a simple “so fuck off, you stupid clowns” would have gone a long way.
I’m not being hyperbolic. Our institutions need to be loudly disrespectful.
Let him suffer
Never gonna happen. Press Corp assigned to WH too much in competition and want to be the first to break "news" from the WH.
So many of us hoped during DJT 1.0 more media would in nationwide solidarity speak out about DJT Covid-19 malfeasance and criminality...instead later wrote books.
Is the Trump administration upset that they are dead naming the Gulf?
Instead go out and show how the policies they’re enacting are harming people across the country.
▶️ Control the press, control the message.
▶️ Control the message, control the people.
Classic dictator move.
Watch your back, Kaitlan!!
You're screwed.
It seems that mainstream media no longer has any principles.

If Trump says black is white, the moon is made of green cheese,(or the Gulf of Mexico is now the Gulf of America), do the rest of us have to go along with it?
I think the AP should keep their integrity and skip said "WH "events".
Wear the ban as a badge of honor.
Only seems fair right? Right?
Here's a little something that I can do for you. Keep up the good work!
Here’s how to complain to google. We need millions of people doing this thing that takes 2 minutes. It’s cathartic I promise
It did feel good. Thank you for the suggestion.
Actually we can do it multiple times!
Everyone else, let's do this

Trump's going to make journalists use a new name for Greenland.
One that creates another justification for invasion.
Not kidding.
Imagine living our lives as dictated to us by the convicted felon rapist trump.

Can you tell us what authority he had to give the Gulf of Mexico a new name?
AP should boycott his press events, notices, etc. and go all out on his seamy underbelly.
