The White House Correspondents Association (WHCA) on Monday filed a court briefing objecting to the one-month suspension of Playboy reporter Brian Karem’s credentials.
“We strongly disagree with the government’s argument that neither the Due Process clause nor the First Amendment constrains the administration in determining who gets access to the White House,” WHCA President Jon Karl said in a statement.
The article goes on to state the following:
“We also believe giving the White House Press Secretary unfettered discretion to determine what is ‘professional’ or ‘unprofessional’ conduct would have a chilling effect on journalists,” he added.
The organization, which represents journalists covering the White House, filed an eight-page amicus brief in federal district court in Washington, D.C., where Karem is suing President Trump and press secretary Stephanie Grisham to restore his credentials.
