What to know

  • Navarro escalated tensions with Fox News by calling on all Trump Cabinet officials to boycott the network in retaliation for its TV pool boycott.
  • The dispute stems from Trump's ban on CNN, MS Now, and Politico, which prompted Fox and three other major networks to refuse White House pool participation.
  • Three banned outlets are seeking emergency court intervention on First Amendment grounds, while Trump's Justice Department argues White House access is a 'privilege,' not a right.
  • The White House is working around the TV pool boycott using a secondary pool, its own TV channel, and social media.

“Realistically, I think Fox's managers understand that if this is allowable, then Democratic administrations will throw them out. So some of it is principled, and some is pragmatic.”

    “Cabinet secretaries, agency heads, White House officials and surrogates should stay off Fox News and Fox Business. The only booking Fox should make is a primetime apology to President Trump and the MAGA audience it has spent years courting.”
