The White House has launched its own online channel, Trump TV, which is meant to broadcast US President Donald Trump's speeches, announcements from his administration, and other content around the clock. The project emerged after Trump banned the news organizations CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from entering the White House. hnonline.sk ↗

The three affected media outlets subsequently began preparing a lawsuit against the president. According to available information, they are seeking urgent intervention in Washington. The dispute concerns the decision by which their staff were excluded from the White House premises. Index.hu ↗

The Trump administration presented the launch of its own broadcast as a response to coverage by major American media outlets. The channel operates online, and its programming focuses primarily on the president's speeches, official announcements, and other information about the administration's activities. Welt ↗

The White House's decision also triggered a reaction among other American television networks. Several major stations have limited their daily coverage of the president and the scope of their media coverage of him. They justified their approach as solidarity with the excluded media and disagreement with the restriction of their access. Tagesschau ↗

Trump TV thus emerged at a time of heightened conflict between the president and part of the American media. Further developments will depend on the legal proceedings and on whether the White House keeps its decision in place. At the same time, it will become clear what role the new channel will play in the official communication of the president and his administration. Refresher.sk ↗
