Here is what the page “Judge Ends Media Ban Hearing Without Ruling, Decision Pending” contains. District Court Judge concluded a Wednesday hearing on whether President Trump's ban of three news organizations from the White House violates the Constitution, but issued no ruling. The judge's decision is now pending, leaving the media outlets in limbo. The hearing examined the legality of the ban, which affects CNN, MS NOW, and Politico. The news organizations argue that the restriction infringes on their First Amendment rights and prevents them from covering the president.
The Trump administration has defended the ban as a matter of executive discretion. The case is being closely watched as a potential landmark decision on press freedom. ABC News will continue to provide updates as the story develops. The full version stays on the original page, which this listing opens directly.
