特朗普总统周六上午再次抨击新闻界，前一天他升级了与媒体的对峙，禁止CNN随行搭乘“空军一号”前往田纳西州度周末。
President Donald Trump launched a fresh attack on the press on Saturday morning, a day after escalating his standoff with news outlets by blocking CNN from traveling with him on Air Force One as he travels to Tennessee this weekend.
“为何要允许CNN和MSDNC等‘假新闻’制造者进入白宫这一极其神圣的场所？”他在Truth Social上写道，“尽管我大选大胜，但近100%的‘特朗普’报道都是负面的，且已持续多年！”
“Why should perpetrators of FAKE NEWS, like CNN and MSDNC, be allowed access to a very sacred place, the White House?” he wrote on Truth Social“Despite my big Election Win, almost 100% of ‘TRUMP’ coverage is negative, and has been for years!”
稍晚上午对记者简短讲话时，总统否认只想要支持他的媒体进入记者团，对MS NOW的Akayla Gardner表示：“我要真新闻，不是假新闻——就像你一样。”他补充道：“我热爱开放、自由的新闻界。我不喜欢假新闻界。”
In brief remarks to reporters later that morning, the president denied that he only wanted news outlets that support him in the press pool, telling MS NOW’s Akayla Gardner, “I want real news, not fake news — like you.”He added, “I love an open, free press. I don’t like the fake press.”
特朗普还抨击媒体报道：在竞选佛罗里达州长并获得特朗普背书的拜伦·唐纳兹众议员，从其竞选网站上移除了关于总统的表述。（唐纳兹称，网站修改已筹备约两个月，旨在突显其竞选纲领。）特朗普在Truth Social上写道，应由法院“制止这种完全不诚实的政治形式”，并称媒体“腐败且不诚实”。周六下午前，特朗普已在社交媒体上四次抨击媒体，其中一条帖子呼吁在中期选举中投票给“共和党和‘特朗普’候选人”。
Trump also railed against the media for reporting that Rep. Byron Donalds, who is running for Florida governor with Trump’s endorsement, removed references to the president from his campaign website. (Donalds has said that the website changes had been in the works for about two months and that they were meant to emphasize his campaign’s platform.) Trump wrote on Truth Social it should be up to the courts to “stop this totally dishonest form of Politics” and called the media “corrupt and dishonest.”By mid-afternoon on Saturday, Trump had lashed out against the press four times on social media, including writing in one post to vote for “Republican and ‘Trump’ candidates” in the midterms.
特朗普对正规新闻机构的最新冒犯，源于过去一周试图让媒体屈从其意的种种举动。因不满媒体对其政府的直白报道、其下滑的支持率及其政策的影响，他试图冻结不提供他想要报道的媒体，在距中期选举仅五周多的关键时刻，颠覆了白宫记者团的传统角色。共和党人私下表示，他们正为选举日失败做准备。
Trump’s latest affront to legitimate news outlets follows a week of attempts to bend the media to his will. Unhappy about straightforward coverage of his administration, his sagging approval rating and the impact of his policies, he has tried to freeze out news outlets that don’t deliver the coverage he wants, upending the traditional role of the White House press corps at a pivotal moment, with just over five weeks to go before the midterm elections. Republicans have said privately they are bracing for defeat on Election Day.
总统上周首次宣布将封杀MS NOW、CNN和Politico，周六这些媒体的记者被拒绝进入白宫场地。在此后的几天里，这三家媒体起诉了特朗普及其政府的多名官员，包括福克斯新闻在内的电视新闻联播池也暂停了对特朗普的报道。白宫则以创建“特朗普电视”作为回击，在线播放该政府所谓的“最精彩片段”。周四，一名联邦法官下令白宫立即暂时恢复这些媒体的采访权限。
The president first announced that he would ban MS NOW, CNN and Politico last week, and the outlets’ journalists were denied access to White House grounds Saturday. In the days that followed, the three outlets sued Trump and several officials in his administration and the TV network pool, which includes Fox News, suspended its coverage of Trump. The White House countered by creating “Trump TV” an online stream of the administration’s so-called “greatest hits.”A federal judge ordered the White House to temporarily and immediately restore the outlets’ access on Thursday.
但总统依然坚持己见，禁止CNN随行报道他前往参加田纳西州对阵德克萨斯州大学橄榄球赛的行程，导致该电视网无法履行其电视联播池的职责。
But the president nevertheless dug in and banned CNN from Air Force One for his trip to attend the Tennessee-Texas college football game, preventing the network from fulfilling its TV pool responsibilities.
特朗普的禁令受到了言论自由倡导者以及两党议员的广泛批评。曾任白宫记者和美联社华盛顿分社社长的罗恩·福尼尔表示，这个问题不仅仅关乎新闻机构报道白宫的权利。
Trump’s ban has been widely criticized by free speech advocates, as well as lawmakers from both parties Ron Fournier, a former White House correspondent and Washington bureau chief for The Associated Press, said the issue is not just news outlets’ right to cover the White House.
他在接受MS NOW采访时说：“如果特朗普总统能够因为媒体批评他而惩罚媒体，那么他就可以惩罚每一个批评总统的美国人。这是非美国式的行为。这是危险的。这对我们所有人都是一种威胁。”总统对媒体表现出如此赤裸裸的敌意几乎没有先例。特朗普经常用粗俗的人身攻击来侮辱女性记者。去年，在美联社拒绝使用“美国湾”这一称呼后，总统将该媒体踢出了新闻联播池，至今仍限制美联社对白宫的报道权限。
“If President Trump is able to get away with punishing the media because they’re being critical of a president, he can punish every American for being critical of a president,” he told MS NOW in an interview. “It is un-American. It is dangerous. It’s a threat to all of us.”There has been little precedent for such naked hostility toward the press from a president. Trump has routinely insulted female journalists in crass personal terms After The Associated Press refused to use the term “Gulf of America” last year, the president booted the outlet from the press pool and still limits the AP’s access to White House coverage.
特朗普在第二个任期内一直试图挑战法律的界限，而在针对媒体的禁令上，他似乎也采取了类似的做法。关于总统是否有权禁止特定媒体进入白宫的某些区域，法律界尚无定论。美联社针对该禁令提起的诉讼仍在进行中，一家联邦上诉法院已表示，该禁令的部分内容目前可以维持。
Trump has consistently sought to push the bounds of the law in his second term, and he appears to be taking a similar approach to his press ban. The law is unsettled on whether the president can ban certain outlets from certain parts of the White House. The AP’s lawsuit over the press ban is ongoing and a federal appeals court has said that some aspects of the ban can stand for now.
