Trump steps up war on media as DOJ investigates 5 TV networks over White House pool coverage
‘Group boycotts among commercial competitors can violate the Sherman Act’ a DOJ spokesperson claimed
What the coverage shows
All three outlets center on a Justice Department antitrust investigation into TV networks over suspended White House pool coverage. The New York Times and Newsweek frame the story in broad terms, while the Washington Post is the only one to name the five networks, Fox News, CNN, ABC, CBS and NBC, and to describe the inquiry as a sharp escalation.
