The White House is seen from the CNN workspace on the White House grounds in Washington, DC, on September 23, 2026. A US federal judge is holding a hearing on Wednesday to consider a demand by CNN, MS NOW and Politico to have their White House access restored after their credentials were revoked by President Donald Trump. The three media outlets went to court after Trump on Friday ordered that they be barred as punishment for distributing what he called "fake news" and "fiction and lies."
