Justice Department lawyers file court documents arguing that White House access is a privilege, not a constitutional entitlement, and that the administration acted over concerns about professional standards and disclosure of sensitive or classified information. The DOJ cites specific alleged violations: CNN disclosing East Wing bunker construction details, MSNOW reporting on a leak investigation, and Politico publishing security-related information about the White House ballroom project.
“Plaintiffs CNN, MSNOW, and Politico have long been granted privileged access to White House grounds. But the President concluded that they have failed to maintain basic minimum 'standards of professionalism and decorum expected of those given access to the White House Complex'”
