Karoline Leavitt scores major victory over haters in the press
Story by Melissa Koenig For Dailymail.Com and Reuters • 4h
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt scored an early victory in the Trump administration's fight over a lawsuit brought by the Associated Press.
U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden declined to temporarily restore the news outlet's access to some of President Donald Trump's events, as well as the Oval Office and Air Force One.
The Associated Press has claimed that its First Amendment protections against government abridgment of speech by trying to dictate the language they use in reporting the news and its right to due process guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment have been violated after senior Trump officials barred the outlet from events for refusing to use the phrase 'Gulf of America.'
Alongside Leavitt, the suit names White House chief of staff Susan Wiles and Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Budowich.
