Banned news outlets ask judge to extend White House block
Original: Banned news outlets ask judge to extend block on White House enforcement
Several news organisations barred from White House access are asking a federal judge to extend a court order blocking the administration from enforcing the ban. The outlets argue the restrictions amount to unconstitutional retaliation against coverage the White House dislikes, while administration lawyers defend the move as a lawful exercise of control over presidential events. A ruling on the extended block is expected imminently.
