CNN sued Donald Trump’s administration Tuesday, alleging the
White House violated journalist Jim Acosta’s rights under the
constitution by revoking his press credentials following a heated
exchange with the US president.
“The wrongful revocation of these credentials violates CNN and
Acosta’s First Amendment rights of freedom of the press, and their
Fifth Amendment rights to due process,” the news network said in a
statement announcing the lawsuit.
“We have asked this court for an immediate restraining order
requiring the pass be returned to Jim, and will seek permanent
relief as part of this process.”
