Newsroom edition: Jeff Bezos, Donald Trump and their attacks on the media

  • Summary

  • This week the Trump administration announced that it would be the White House, not the independent journalists’ association, that decides who gets to cover the president up close. The unprecedented move comes as the Associated Press continues to be barred from the Oval Office and Air Force One, after it refused to follow Trump in renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America.

Bridie Jabour talks with editor-in-chief of the Guardian Katharine Viner about the increasing threat to press freedom in the wake of these attacks on the media
