President Donald Trump criticized a reporter during a trip for not providing "real news" and accused CNN of producing only fake news, reinforcing his previous ban on certain media outlets from covering him at the White House and aboard Air Force One. A federal judge had recently ordered the administration to temporarily lift the ban on CNN, MSN Now, and Politico, but these restrictions continued to affect coverage in some contexts despite the court order. Trump also announced a new media channel called "Trump TV" via Instagram, providing his supporters with direct access to content from the White House YouTube page.
