US President Donald Trump announced Friday that he is banning cable news networks CNN and MS NOW and website Politico from the White House, accusing the major outlets of reporting "fake news" about his administration.

"I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW (who recently changed their name from MSNBC due to lack of viewership and credibility!), and Politico ... from the White House as a result of their constant ‘reporting’ FAKE NEWS!" Trump said in a statement on his social media platform TruthSocial.

Trump alleged Politico had received "an illegal and ridiculous $8 Million Dollar subscription” from the US Government, under previous President Joe Biden, in order to keep them "alive."

"Seems like corruption to me!" he said.

"Media Outlets shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they’re covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States of America. Other Fake News Media Outlets to follow," he added.

CNN, MS NOW, and Politico did not immediately respond to Trump's statement.
