...cnn's chair in the whitehouse press room should be moved to the back. Then they should be summarily ignored much as they ignore the truth. If I was Spicer I would ask the CNN rep to stop picking his nose as it was disturbing to real reporters.

The White House Cuts Off CNN

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2017/02/the-white-house-has-cut-off-cnn.html

President Trump and his team at the White House are giving CNN the silent treatment, refusing to send official spokespeople on the network in what one reporter says is an attempt to push down the network’s ratings. An unnamed White House official confirmed the CNN boycott to Politico, but was less blunt about the reason:

“We’re sending surrogates to places where we think it makes sense to promote our agenda,” said a White House official, acknowledging that CNN is not such a place, but adding that the ban is not permanent.

Administration officials are still answering the questions of CNN reporters and White House press secretary Sean Spicer is still calling on CNN at briefings. But the last time an administration official appeared on the news network was January 11, when Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway was on Anderson Cooper’s show, Politico says. That was the same day that Trump blew up on CNN reporter Jim Acosta at his first and only press conference as a president-elect.
