A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration cannot bar the Associated Press (AP) from attending White House events in retaliation for its editorial decisions. The case centered around the AP's refusal to refer to the Gulf of Mexico as the 'Gulf of America,' a term reportedly favored by the administration. The judge, appointed by Trump, granted an injunction requiring the White House to restore the AP’s access to press events, including those in the Oval Office. The ruling is seen as a significant win for press freedom and a rebuke of attempts to control media coverage through access restrictions. Legal experts say the decision reinforces First Amendment protections for journalists covering the federal government.
