The White House has barred CNN from traveling with President Trump on Air Force One for an upcoming trip to Tennessee, where the president will attend a college football game. This decision follows previous conflicts between the administration and media outlets, including a recent ban that was lifted after legal challenges raised concerns about constitutional rights. CNN had been scheduled to join other news organizations covering the event but was excluded from the official White House travel list released on Friday night.

Story summary
On September 25, 2026, the White House barred CNN from flying with President Donald Trump on Air Force One for his trip to Knoxville, Tennessee, on September 26, where he was scheduled to attend a college football game. This decision followed a previous ban by Trump against CNN and other outlets like MS NOW and Politico from covering his daily activities at the White House. Despite a judge’s order restoring access to the White House grounds for these networks, the ruling did not address Air Force One pool duties. The spot meant for CNN was instead given to Real America's Voice News, a conservative network. This move escalates an ongoing dispute over media freedoms and highlights concerns about First Amendment implications.
