CNN left off Air Force One for Trump's upcoming trip, White House signals in new media restriction

CNN was replaced by the conservative Real America's Voice News. The news came just after journalists from three news outlets that Trump banned last week from the White House grounds returned to the executive complex with TV cameras, laptops and microphones in hand. Trump is scheduled travel to Knoxville, Tennessee, and attend a college football game between Tennessee and Texas.

The White House signaled Friday night that CNN would be left off Air Force One for President Donald Trump's Saturday trip, the latest media restriction from the administration in an ongoing dispute with First Amendment implications.

Trump is scheduled to attend a college football game between the University of Tennessee and the University of Texas at midday Saturday.
