Access denied: Mainstream media called for bans of competitors, but now cry foul as Trump removes their White House access
The White House has revoked credentials from CNN, MS NOW and Politico, and other mainstream networks are launching a boycott of the president’s events. America Now anchor Ben Swann and host of The Sanchez Effect Rick Sanchez discuss how the very same networks that called for RT and other alternative media outlets to be banned are now crying foul over losing privileged access to US President Donald Trump’s administration. Also, a group of January 6th defendants are suing Trump’s attorney general. They say their guilty pleas were coerced. Plus, musician Ed Sheeran and hockey player Alex Ovechkin have faced criticism over their politics, but for very different reasons. America Now correspondent Olivia Flynn looks at what is similar and what is different in the two stories.
