He accused the Trump administration of trying to “stifle the First Amendment" and "inject fealty among the press corps.”
Brian Karem, Playboy magazine’s senior White House correspondent, is suing the Trump administration over the suspension of his press pass, becoming the second journalist in less than a year to launch a legal battle over that credential.
“This is part of the administration’s concerted effort to stifle the First Amendment, abandon due process and inject fealty among the press corps,” he said. “They’re using this as a pretense because I’ve been critical of this administration.” “The president and his administration are fostering an atmosphere of hostility and violence towards journalists that cannot be tolerated and they are illegally using the credential process to stifle freedom of the press and to disrupt the flow of vital information to the American people. We intend to seek immediate relief in federal court,” Boutrous said.
Story continuesIn a statement released earlier this month, Playboy called Karem’s suspension “incredibly concerning,” adding that the magazine has fought in the past to “protect First Amendment rights, and the fight must continue today.”
