CNN: Trump W.H. Bans CNN, NYT, LA Times, Others from Attending Press Gaggle

RUSH EXCERPT:

TAPPER: "The White House appearing today to take punitive action against news organizations. Press Secretary Sean Spicer in the people’s house just briefed reporters on the day’s news. He was at the White House, of course. He did not allow news outlets including CNN and the New York Times and the Los Angeles times and politico and others to attend that off-camera briefing which is known as a gaggle. This is a wild deviation from basic White House protocol which normally allows any credentialed news organization to participate."
