Trumps reelection campaign announced Monday that Bloomberg News will be banned from covering the presidents rallies and events, citing the outlets openly declared Democratic bias. In a tersely-worded statement, Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale said the news organization was blacklisted in light of its recent announcement that it wont investigate its billionaire owner, Michael Bloomberg, or any other Democratic 2020 candidates, though it will keep pursuing hard-hitting journalism about Trump. We are accustomed to unfair reporting practices, but most news organizations dont announce their biases so publicly, Parscale said. Since they have declared their bias openly, the Trump campaign will no longer credential representatives of Bloomberg News for rallies or other campaign events. Bloomberg News editor-in-chief John Micklethwait blasted Parscales claims as baseless. The accusation of bias couldnt be further from the truth," Micklethwait said in a statement. "We have covered Donald Trump fairly and in an unbiased way since he became a candidate in 2015 and will continue to do so despite the restrictions imposed by the Trump campaign. Howard Wolfson, a longtime Bloomberg adviser and campaign aide, took the Trump campaign announcement in stride. One week in and Mike is already under Trumps skin, Wolfson tweeted. Trump appeared to prove Wolfson right. Mini Mike Bloomberg has instructed his third rate news organization not to investigate him or any Democrat, but to go after President Trump, only, Trump tweeted. Its not O.K.! --- Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 ... Copied to Clipboard!
