CNN journalists are barred from accompanying President Trump on his presidential aircraft to Tennessee this Saturday. The decision prevents the network from fulfilling its role in the television press pool, which provides coverage on behalf of 5 major news networks. The White House instead allocated those travel seats to Real America's Voice for the trip to Knoxville.

The restriction follows a Thursday order by a federal judge that temporarily restored CNN's access to the White House. In response to the move, some members of the television press pool have indicated that the pool should refrain from providing or broadcasting pooled coverage of the president's travels.
