White House blocks CNN from trip on Air Force One
- The White House barred CNN from flying aboard Air Force One with President Donald Trump to Knoxville, Tennessee, removing the network from its scheduled television press pool duties.
- This exclusion follows the administration's September 18 ban of CNN, MS NOW, and Politico, which escalated tensions over media access and prompted a rare solidarity boycott by other major networks.
- U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly temporarily restored hard passes for the outlets on Thursday, though his ruling did not explicitly address pool duties or Air Force One travel.
- Replacing CNN, the administration listed Real America's Voice News—an outlet operated by businessman Mike Lindell—on the travel schedule, though the network is not part of the standard TV pool rotation.
- The ongoing dispute tests boundaries of presidential control over media access, as the White House maintains that press privileges remain subject to executive discretion rather than constitutional rights.
