此前因特朗普总统禁止其记者进入白宫而提起诉讼的新闻机构,现正请求联邦法官干预白宫持续阻挠CNN参与总统随行报道(pool duty)的行为。

News outlets that sued to regain access to the White House after President Trump banned their reporters from the grounds are asking a federal judge to intervene in the administration’s ongoing efforts to keep CNN from covering the president via pool duty.

在本周提交的一份新法庭文件中,代表这些机构的律师写道:“白宫的言行毫无疑问地表明,如果给予机会,它将立即重新对CNN、MSNBC和POLITICO实施全面禁令。”

In a new court filing this week, an attorney representing the outlets, wrote that “the White House’s words and actions leave little doubt that it will immediately reinstitute a complete ban of CNN, MS NOW, and POLITICO if allowed the opportunity.”

这些媒体机构辩称,特朗普政府仍在“不可预测且不一致地”执行禁令,从而对CNN造成了“不可弥补的损害”。

The Trump administration is still enforcing the ban “unpredictably and inconsistently,” the outlets argued and thus is causing CNN “irreparable harm.”“Moreover, the ban independently violates the First Amendment by restricting access to and use of a nonpublic forum on viewpoint-discriminatory and unreasonable terms,” the media companies’ attorney wrote, reiterating an argument he made when the outlets initially sued to regain access to the White House.

律师重申了他们在最初起诉时提出的论点,即该禁令以歧视观点和不合理的条款限制了对非公共论坛的访问和使用,独立地违反了第一修正案。

The latest filing comes as each of the networks have decided to resume pool coverage while CNN’s ability to fulfill its duty in the rotating list of outlets covering the president’s daily activities remains in doubt.

此次提交文件之际,各电视网已决定恢复随行报道,但CNN在轮流报道总统日常活动的名单中履行职责的能力仍存疑。

Trump initially banned the outlets earlier this month, and when a U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly ruled last week that the White House violated the media companies due process rights, access for journalists working for the three outlets was restored.

特朗普本月初首次禁止了这些媒体,上周美国地方法院法官蒂莫西·凯利裁定白宫侵犯了这些媒体公司的正当程序权利,三家机构记者的采访权得以恢复。

Tensions flared between CNN and the White House again over the weekend when the outlet was kept from Air Force One as Trump traveled to Tennessee to attend a college football game.

上周末,当CNN被禁止登上“空军一号”随特朗普前往田纳西州观看大学橄榄球比赛时,CNN与白宫之间的紧张关系再次升级。

The president has consistently accused CNN and other outlets of peddling “fake news” and suggested he has a right to keep them from covering him.

总统一直指责CNN和其他媒体兜售“假新闻”,并暗示他有权阻止他们进行报道。CNN定于周四进行随行报道。特朗普政府需在周五前对本周提交的文件作出回应。

CNN is slated for pool coverage on Thursday. The Trump administration is required to submit a response to this week’s filing by Friday.
