TV Networks Finally Pull Plug on Trump After Crackpot CNN Ban

America’s major TV networks have fired back at Donald Trump’s ban on certain media at the White House by refusing to assign a reporting crew to cover him, in an extraordinary escalation in the battle between the press and the president.

Days after Trump took the astonishing step of banning CNN, Politico and MS NOW from the White House because he wanted more favorable coverage, NBC, ABC, CBS and even the Trump-friendly Fox News joined forces to suspend White House pool duties and boycott the 80-year-old.
