Where I live, government agencies and the government aren't allowed to refuse commenting to the press or to make a selection of whom they're talking to. They're accountable to the public and refusing to talk to the media is actually breaking the law.

Might be that American legislation is different.

I looked it up. He cannot revoke press passes or anything like that, but he is not required to hold press conferences, nor allow everyone into those he does hold. He could hold one on ones with Breitbart only, and it would be totally legal.

I think that makes one of our "pillars" quite a bit weaker than I'd realized. However, in today's media soaked world, it will still be pretty difficult for him to shut them up.

It may be legal but It shows Trumps contempt for criticism and the general weakness of his regime

Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
