The Associated Press and the White House are having an argument over whether the “journalists” can deadname the Gulf of America.
Because the AP refuses to use the official name of the Gulf, the White House has revoked the organization’s pass to enter the Oval Office and board Air Force One. It still has a seat at the White House briefing room but no special access as it has had in the past.
Many people think the White House is being petty, but they have a point–the Associated Press is having a temper tantrum and actively spreading what amounts to misinformation from the White House’s point of view, and frankly the AP deserves to get its snout slapped with a newspaper for all the crap they pull.
The AP, as you might imagine, is big mad. So they are using the one tool they have to get back at Trump: they are spinning stories even harder.
Why are you…
