Trump Team Revokes Election Party Access for Some Journalists

President-elect Donald Trump's team has revoked the press credentials of several journalists from major news organizations, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, and BuzzFeed, from attending his election night party at the New York Hilton Midtown.

The move comes after months of escalating tensions between the Trump campaign and the media, with Trump repeatedly attacking the press as "the enemy of the people" and accusing them of spreading "fake news."

The Trump team has not given a specific reason for revoking the credentials of these journalists, but it is likely due to their critical coverage of Trump and his campaign.

The affected journalists have expressed outrage over the decision, calling it an attack on the First Amendment and an attempt to silence critical voices.

The White House Correspondents' Association has also condemned the move, saying that it "sets a dangerous precedent for the incoming administration."

It is unclear whether the Trump team will allow the affected journalists to attend any other events related to the inauguration, such as the swearing-in ceremony or the inaugural balls.

The revocation of press credentials is the latest in a series of attacks on the media by the Trump team. Trump has repeatedly made false and misleading statements about the media, and he has encouraged his supporters to harass and intimidate journalists.

The Trump team's actions have raised concerns about the future of press freedom in the United States.
