The Briefing with Jen Psaki · Psaki: Trump can't hide by attacking the free press · 19 Sep 2026 podcast

Here's how Ronald Reagan described it back in 1985. podcast-host

The first institution to be attacked by tyrants. podcast-host

So here we are 40 years later. podcast-host

Our current president seems to be turning Reagan's warning into his own version of a case study he's trying to follow. podcast-host

Donald Trump is simply too thin-skinned, too coddled, too... podcast-host

shaded by shaded from real news to be able to handle the scrutiny of a free press. podcast-host

And the more unpopular he gets, the more he feels like he's losing, the more he feels the need to isolate himself from the people asking him hard questions. podcast-host

And so today, Donald Trump announced that effective immediately in his words, he is banning CNN, Politico and this network, MSNOW from the White House with plans to ban more outlets in the future. podcast-host

Later in the day, he was asked about that order by reporters in the press pool at the White House. podcast-host

Oh, the ban on the free press you're asking about? podcast-host

I would say it should go as far as it can, those were his words, until they straighten themselves out. podcast-host

By his definition, I would note. podcast-host

Now, today, the White House Correspondents Association, which I will note is currently led by Fox News correspondent Jackie Heinrich, released this statement. podcast-host

Here's what it says, quote, The president said it plainly in the Oval Office, describing his own planned action as a ban on the free press. podcast-host

The Constitution protects the freedom of the press from government interference. podcast-host

That protection does not depend on whether the president likes a news organization's coverage, agrees with its reporting, or approves of the questions its journalists ask. podcast-host

This is about more than the rights of journalists. podcast-host

It's about the right of the American people to receive a full and independent account of the activities, policies, and decisions of whoever occupies the nation's highest office. podcast-host

WSJ stands in defense of our colleagues at CNN, MSNOW, and Politico who are being singled out for doing their jobs. podcast-host

And again, that statement is personally signed by the association's president, Fox News correspondent Jackie Heinrich. podcast-host
