I am still not sure if the first link is an Apple to Apple situation.  Not inviting Fox news to an interview they never ask for really isn't the White House Job.  Also if they stated they would prefer Fox not attend is totally different then them saying Fox cannot attend.  

As to this reporter, we will see where this goes.  I noticed once Trump is able to do one thing he will take it to the extreme.  So if we say this reporter was out of line and the temp ban for this event is warranted.  Lets see how far Trump will take this.  If anyone from CNN gives him tough questions at any time and they feel banning them is warranted then we may have an issue.

I think you'll find this interesting.  It wasn't Trump himself that banned her but was Bill Shine, the White House deputy chief of staff for communications and....former co-president of Fox News.

I did read that part when looking into the issue.  I assumed that Trump was the one who put it in motion and Bill Shine executed it.  Even if it was totally Bill decision, there are 2 sides you can look at it.  You can say that with Bill experience he felt the way this reporter went about her job was inappropriate enough to warrant a ban or you could say that this gave Bill the perfect opportunity to stick it to CNN and leave the President out of it.  One incident is really not enough to go on based on what occurred with this situation.
