Trump Campaign Bars Critical Media from Election Night Event

In an apparent act of retaliation, several journalists were denied access to Trump's election night watch party due to their unfavorable coverage.

  • Journalists from outlets like Politico, Axios, and Puck had their credentials revoked or denied for Trump's election night event.
  • The bans were reportedly in response to stories that criticized or highlighted issues within the Trump campaign.
  • Tara Palmeri of Puck was among those barred after reporting on campaign anxiety, despite previous assurances of access.
  • Trump campaign manager Chris LaCivita cited 'inaccurate' reporting as the reason for denying access, though specific criticisms were not detailed.
  • This incident continues Trump's longstanding contentious relationship with the media, reminiscent of similar actions during his presidency.
