Key facts

The US Justice Department is investigating several major TV networks regarding their suspension of pool coverage of President Donald Trump. The investigation concerns whether these networks violated federal antitrust laws. The networks involved include ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News. This action followed a White House ban that restricted access for some news organizations.
