gagzus 25,305 Posted yesterday at 04:03 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:03 PM In an unprecedented move, four of the five TV networks that provide White House pool coverage of President Donald Trump — ABC News, CBS News, NBC News and Fox News— have joined in solidarity with CNN, which is the fifth TV pooler, announcing they are suspending coverage of the president because of his ban of CNN. “The public has a vital interest in receiving accurate, independent information about its government,” the five networks said in a joint statement Monday. “No administration should restrict a news organisation because it objects to its reporting.” The blackout of White House pool coverage by the networks comes after the Trump administration suspended CNN as the designated TV pool provider on Monday, Sept. 21 — leaving no TV pooler for the day. It also follows CNN, MS NOW and Politico announcing that they are suing Trump and three White House officials over his unilateral ban of the news outlets, alleging it violates the First Amendment. https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/tv-networks-suspend-white-house-pool-protest-trump-cnn-ban-1236871070/ 5 1 1 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EART HL I NG 1,596 Posted yesterday at 04:06 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:06 PM I'm assuming they're doing this so the administration can do some nefarious sh*t completely under the radar. No way Fox is either a broken clock or having a Ebenezer Scrooge moment 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DopeEnigma 1,832 Posted yesterday at 04:21 PM Share Posted yesterday at 04:21 PM (edited) Obvious why they’re supporting this because if they don’t the next Democratic president will have a right to block them from the press pool if they wish to do so. Even though Repubs aren’t saying it publicly they’re apparently losing their s*** about this behind the scenes, goes against the first amendment as well as the fact they’re going to likely lose the midterms catastrophically and this doesn’t help things for them.

Right?! But it isn’t a bad thing. This is how things should be looked at. If someone had this much power abuse, even if it benefits you, you shouldn’t feel restrained from opposing it. This type of sympathy is what is lacking from the right. I hate Fox News and will continue to do so, but I’m glad they’re standing up for journalism as a whole. I can say that.

TEETHTEETH 1,838 Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago So now there is zero accountability or eyes in the house to report back to us. Love the solidarity but this isn’t all great news. Very scary this is what it’s come down to Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGAte 1,314 Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Mark my words, Fox and the republicans are gonna turn on Trump starting in 2027 so they can lube up their next republican. All the major conservative podcasters and conservative think tanks like Karl Rove, Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, MTG have all turned on Trump. So the fringe right already hates him. The core right and dedicated MAGA still are by his side, but the core right is hesitant now. Even Nancy Mace (R) South Carolina, was asked out in front of Congress yesterday if she thinks the Republicans will win November and without missing a beat she said "no". We are talking about states like Ohio flipping back to blue. (The Ohio Governor race between Vivek Ramaswamy (R) and Amy Acton (D) now has Amy Acton likely to win. And Vivek has Elon money backing him. They still aren't beating her. Also Ohio has Democrat Sherrod Brown taking his Senate seat back away from Republican John Husted.) If you can flip Ohio, that historically has been a very good state to see where the mood of the country is and for a state like Ohio that has been voting red for a while to suddenly become blue again, vote for recreational marijuana and abortion in their last election, and then put in their first elected woman Governor....that's wild.) The Republicans are scared. But they also are a very manipulative party and strategic. Watch out. They are going to ditch Trump. AND THEIR NEXT PLAY IS GOING TO BE: End times/End of the World/Rapture ****. I kid you not. I can already see JD planting the seeds. They know they have to support Israel and Netanyahu and the tech cronies and they know the deep south red voters are dumb enough to think their vote will somehow keep us from the rapture. JD has already been bringing up "the end of the world" alot in his speeches. It's weird. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
