This may be a dumb question - does the WH get to pick who gets to come to the press conferences? Acosta - you're out, other CNN reporter - you're in.
Don't know if that makes sense - brain isn't quite firing on all cylinders.

The White House being able to hand pick the press would be a pretty awful precedent.

Violated politeness rules, just like any agency or business in the US

no of course not, that why all this lawsuit BS is so stupid. CNN can send anyone they want to be a WH corespondent. just not whiny little jimmy.
the WH cannot deny access to "media outlets" but they arent required to accept whoever those outlets choose to send, then can and absolutely do have every right to dictate someone who is being disruptive or rude is denied access to be disruptive and rude.

No, as I explained last week. the ONLY Thing the WH suspended was Acosta's permanent WH pass. The press itself decides who is in the press pool and where they sit during press conferences.
Hell, Acosta could have walked up to the WH and asked for a day pass if he had wanted to and went to the press conference.
