The Trump administration has turned a reporter and photographer from The Associated Press away from covering an Oval Office news conference involving President Donald Trump and El Salvador President Nayib Bukele.

Last week’s federal court decision forbidding the Trump administration from punishing the AP for refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico was to take effect Monday. The administration is appealing the decision and arguing with the news outlet over whether it needs to change anything until those appeals are exhausted.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. circuit set a Thursday hearing on Trump’s request that any changes be delayed while case is reviewed. The AP is fighting for more access as soon as possible.

    When you become informed, you realize that it was your fault. But yelling at people that they are stupid and ignorant I don’t think helps enlighten them…probably entrenches them and makes them question their beliefs even less…

      Agreed. I’m not likely to say it to their face… but here, I’m preaching to the choir and I can be a bit salty about it.
