“AP has now spent 44 days in the penalty box,” said Charles Tobin, speaking on behalf of the news agency.
The AP and the new administration are at odds over the White House’s removal of AP reporters and photographers from the small group of journalists who follow the president in the pool and other events. Last month, AP sued White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and two other administration officials, demanding reinstatement.
The White House retaliated against the news outlet last month for not following President Trump’s executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico.
Why do you need to be in the press pool, just ask to be added to the group chat.

Made fascism normal, along with every other media outlet. I’m done with all of them.
The AP reports the news pretty fairly. I wouldn’t call them Trump supporters
They are very professional and that’s appreciated to a point, but here’s the thing: there’s no such thing as an objective take. That doesn’t exist. So we have to start with the understanding that whatever their story says it’s going to have a point of view.
That point of view, almost invariably, supports republiQans. We can look at examples if it’s not obvious enough.
That a demented rapist who staged a coup and was convicted of insane amouts of fraud and under indictment for selling state secrets should be in the office again says a lot about how fair AP is.
