DOJ investigates five major TV networks over White House press ban response
Original: DOJ investigating 5 major TV networks over response to White House press ban
The Justice Department has opened an investigation into five major US television networks over their collective response to a White House press ban, The Hill reports. The probe concerns the networks' boycott or coordinated stance after the administration moved to restrict certain press access, raising fresh concerns about press freedom and government pressure on media organisations.
Why now: A federal investigation into major broadcasters over a press access dispute raises significant press freedom concerns.
