White House Excludes CNN from Lunch

“Each year, presidents invite broadcast and cable news anchors for an off-the-record lunch the afternoon of the State of the Union address,” Mediaite reports.

“This year, President Trump excluded CNN from the lunch… According to Brian Stelter, while Trump has maintained the traditional lunch and will host one this year — despite his campaign of performative animosity towards the media — the White House has not invited any anchors from CNN.”
