Conservative media outlets are now stepping into the role once filled by the mainstream media and providing TV pool coverage of the President after networks announced plans to boycott Trump in response to CNN, MS Now, and Politico being banned from the White House.
This comes amid major world news events, including Trump’s attendance at the UN General Assembly in New York on Tuesday and Chinese President Xi Jinping’s trip to the United States this week. President Trump is scheduled to participate in an arrival ceremony for Xi Jinping today at 6:00 pm ET.
Trump banned CNN, MS Now, and Politico from the White House last week, citing the “FICTION and LIES” they report. The three outlets have since filed a lawsuit against the Trump Administration.
ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox News, and NBC also suspended their pooled coverage of the White House in protest of the move by Trump, the Gateway Pundit reported.
Following CNN’s exclusion from the White House press pool for the President’s trip to New York for the United Nations General Assembly, Fox News Washington bureau chief Bryan Boughton, who leads the television pool consortium, said in a letter to television pool members that they will no longer cover the President, according to the New York Times.

CNN White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins boasted of the boycott in a YouTube short posted by CNN this week. “Fox News, CBS, ABC, NBC, and CNN, have all banded together, and they have suspended the TV pool, which means that for the time being, the President will not have a camera and reporters from a major outlet, a major television outlet, covering him,” she said. “That comes as he is headed to New York on Monday for the United Nations General Assembly, and also ahead of his big state visit in Washington with Xi Jinping, all events that we know the President values having broadcast on television.”
She doesn’t think the conservative press corps at the White House could do it.
WATCH:
Instead of CNN, Real America’s Voice stepped up to take over TV coverage as the secondary TV pool crew during the President’s New York trip, posing a serious threat to the White House Correspondents’ Association’s monopoly on coverage of the President.
Here is some of the coverage of President Trump arriving in Washington, DC, broadcast to the world from Real America’s Voice’s cameras:
Today, Lindell TV is stepping up to the plate, in partnership with Real America’s Voice, to broadcast and distribute live worldwide coverage of President Trump welcoming Xi Jinping to Washington, DC.
As noted by independent journalist Nick Sortor on Tuesday, the two networks could completely replace the five major networks’ White House coverage.
Lindell TV should agree to work with RAV, who I’ve been working with today to set up infrastructure to distribute live feeds from their cameras to the pool.
If @RealLindellTV agrees to swap spots with RAV, we’ll have fully functional pool feeds to counter CNN’s boycott

This is a historic moment in breaking the left-wing media’s stranglehold over the White House.
The Gateway Pundit will provide updates on the arrival ceremony for Xi Jinping and carry live video footage from Lindell TV on our website.
