Journalist and former Bernie Sanders advisor David Sirota posted on X that while Trump's blocking is problematic, mainstream media outlets have been hypocritical in their indignation, as they routinely say nothing when the White House and Congress deny credentials to smaller independent outlets.
“They don't actually care about the press freedom principles they are pretending to care about here. They care about their own access, their own business models, and virtue signaling.”
