White House excludes CNN from president's travel pool

Original: CNN was slotted to cover the president on Saturday on behalf of the television pool, but White House guidance did not in

CNN was scheduled to cover the president on Saturday as part of the television pool, but White House guidance omitted the network from the list of outlets traveling with him. The move has drawn criticism from press freedom advocates, who say rotating or excluding networks from presidential coverage undermines the press pool's role in holding the administration accountable.

Why now: The exclusion of a major network from presidential press coverage raises fresh concerns about the White House's relationship with the media.
