Trump Violates the First Amendment

[IM2]

Today, Donald Trump excluded a news agency from the executive order signing held today because that agency refused to call The Gulf of Mexico what Trump wants it to be called.

AP statement on Oval Office access

The Associated Press issued this statement on Tuesday from Executive Editor Julie Pace:

As a global news organization, The Associated Press informs billions of people around the world every day with factual, nonpartisan journalism.

Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump’s executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office. This afternoon AP’s reporter was blocked from attending an executive order signing.

It is alarming that the Trump administration would punish AP for its independent journalism. Limiting our access to the Oval Office based on the content of AP’s speech not only severely impedes the public’s access to independent news, it plainly violates the First Amendment.

If Trump took away their First Amendment rights how were they able to whine and cry about not getting invited to the signing?

That's nothing. The white man who freed you slaves locked up more than several pro-Confederacy journalists for exercising their "First Amendment" right. His name was Abraham Lincoln and he was a Republican too.

The more you know...

And yet, you'd defend Abraham Lincoln for doing worse than this?

Okie dokie.

You aren't winning anything.

America is losing and you are one of the reasons why.

 

[Blackrook]

The entire mainstream media has been aggressively hostile to this President and his policies. Why should he grant access to any of them? There is no First Amendment right to access.

 

[Missourian]

There is no first amendment right to attend a signing.

If the AP chooses to lie to their readership about the name of the Gulf of America... which was the result of a different EO signing... wouldn't you invite a news outlet that isn't documented to have ignored the results of a different EO signing?

I would.

AP can call the Gulf of America whatever they want... but they can also be excluded from EO signings in the future as a result of those actions.
