AI Fusion Summary

Major US TV networks, including ABC, CBS, Fox News, and NBC, suspended White House pool coverage after President Trump banned CNN, MS NOW, and Politico. This boycott left Trump inaudible during a South Lawn helipad ribbon-cutting ceremony, as the official White House feed failed to capture audio over helicopter noise. In response, the White House encouraged the public to download its app for direct livestreams, while banned outlets filed a lawsuit citing First Amendment violations.
