"Additionally, Holder's team seized the records of reporters at Fox News and the Associated Press (AP). The AP reporters – 20 of them – had their phone records subpoenaed through their providers, something they claimed at the time was a “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into news-gathering operations."

| Ali Velshi of MSNBC says nothing to see Here: Peaceful Protest |
"An MS NOW White House correspondent was denied entry to the complex Saturday after her press badge failed at a security checkpoint. The episode came one day after President Donald Trump announced he was banning CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from White House grounds over what he called "fake news."
"Akayla Gardner, who has been covering the administration since August of last year and previously reported for Bloomberg News, said an officer told her the credential had been disabled and confiscated it.
She tried to enter despite knowing the President had announced the ban on her legacy media network. And although she made it through the first two gates to the grounds, the third was a different story.
"Once I was inside where we have magnetometers, I attempted to scan my badge, which we have to do in able to get into the White House grounds," she said. "It did not work. There was a red beeping light."
"And so the officer asked me to hand over my badge. He said that it was disabled. I asked why I was not able to get inside. He said it was above him," added Gardner.
The reporter explained that her producer got past the security apparatus, but she and a photographer had their badges confiscated.
"This is the first action we know of, of them actually denying us entry into the White House."
MSNBC allstars doing their form of "Journalism"
The administration's rapid response team hilariously countered CNN's claims by listing a plethora of provably false narratives pushed by the once-respected network.
