Justice Department investigating television networks over Trump pool coverage
(opens the publisher’s site)The Justice Department is investigating ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News and NBC for possible antitrust violations over their suspension of pooled coverage of President Donald Trump.
- Investigators sent the five networks document demands on Friday covering the TV pool's formation and recent operations.
- The networks halted pooled coverage of Trump for several days last month after he banned CNN, MSNOW and Politico from White House grounds.
- A Justice Department spokesperson said group boycotts among commercial competitors can violate the Sherman Act.
- A federal judge temporarily halted the ban, and CNN, MSNOW and Politico are suing the administration over it.
- The Committee to Protect Journalists criticized the Justice Department's antitrust investigation into the five networks.
