Avenatti: Michael Cohen’s Restraining Order to Try to Gag Me Is an Attack on the 1st Amendment

‘It’s not just an attack on me, it’s an attack on every source, every individual who provides information in this case and others’

EXCERPT:

CAMEROTA: "I mean, are you saying that you would respect the restraining order or that you would break it?"
AVENATTI: "No, I'm not going to break a restraining order by a federal district court judge. My point is is that this attempt is an attack on the First Amendment, period. It's not just an attack on me, it's an attack on every source, every individual that provides information whether it be in this case or others. And indirectly, it's an attack on the media. It's the same reason why Mr. Trump has attempted to close the media out of the White House. It's more of the same."
