Major US television networks have suspended their shared coverage of President Donald Trump’s events after the White House blocked CNN from carrying out its scheduled duties, escalating a dispute between the administration and news organisations.
The television pool, comprising ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News and NBC, will not provide coverage of presidential events designated for pool access, Fox News Washington bureau chief Bryan Boughton, who is serving as the consortium’s acting chair, told members on Monday, according to media reports.
