A legal battle is brewing between the White House and several major news organizations after the Trump administration revoked press credentials for CNN, MSNBC, and Politico. ABC News legal analyst Royal Oakes joins the show to explain the First Amendment issues at the center of the lawsuit, the limits of presidential authority over press access, and how past fights involving reporters and administrations of both parties could shape the outcome. The conversation explores the distinction between denying access to specific events and banning reporters from the White House press corps, the legal standards that courts have applied in similar disputes, and what the upcoming hearings could mean for the future relationship between the presidency and the press.
