US Politics: Catering to Iran

Networks pull out of White House TV pool in solidarity with CNN​

Major TV networks that rotate covering the president for wider media distribution say they will not do so moving forward after President Trump banned three media outlets from the White House last week.

Fox News Media, ABC News, CBS News, NBC News and CNN responded to the ban in a rare joint statement, saying “the public has a vital interest in receiving accurate, independent information about its government.”

“No administration should restrict a news organisation because it objects to its reporting,” the outlets added.

The statement came after the White House pool said in a note to subscribers on Monday that “effective today, the TV pool will not be covering events designated as pool coverage of the President.”

“This follows the White House’s position preventing CNN from fulfilling its assigned pool duties. There will be no replacement pool put in place,” the group noted.

it would be rather interesting if international news groups refused to broadcast the prat's speech at the un, and interviewed all other leaders - with the exception of the orange buffoon

America is not a spectator sport

Apparently Logan and I going to Washington meeting with the Vice President, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Secretary of War, and other leaders of this country really pisses some people off

Good.

Because I’d rather be in the room asking questions, learning, challenging ideas, building relationships, and figuring out how I can help than sitting behind a screen telling everyone else what they should be doing

Twitter fingers have never built a country

Think about how insane the American Dream really is

Two brothers with a camera and a crazy amount of ambition can build businesses, compete on the biggest stages in the world, employ hundreds of people, invest in the future of this country and one day walk into Washington and sit across from the people helping lead it

That should inspire people not offend them

Washington doesn’t belong to commentators.
It doesn’t belong to celebrities.
It doesn’t belong to politicians.

It belongs to the American people

And whether people like me or hate me I’m going to keep showing up

Keep learning.
Keep building.
Keep investing in American companies.
Keep creating jobs.
Keep supporting American innovation.
Keep meeting the people doing the hard work.
Keep sticking my neck out.
And keep trying to leave this country stronger than I found it.

The next generation needs to believe that America is still a place where you can dream impossibly big, work your ass off, get knocked down, reinvent yourself, and eventually find yourself in rooms you never thought you’d enter

This country gave me opportunities beyond anything I could have imagined

I intend to give something back

You can spend your life commentating from the cheap seats or you can get on the field

I know where I’ll be

God bless the United States of America

I won't be surprised to see them put their names into the presidential hat in the time to come. I mean,
