Hearing about a small number of layoffs at the MetroWest Daily News and the Worcester Telegram & Gazette. They're both part of USA Today Co., i.e., Gannett. What is anyone else hearing?

Overnight, Judge Timothy Kelly ordered the Trump admin to restore CNN, MS NOW and Politico's access to the White House "immediately." This is an important victory for First Amendment freedoms, though the ruling is grounded in Fifth Amendment due process rights

Judge Kelly rules that Trump's ban on CNN, MS NOW and Politico is likely unconstitutional and orders the White House to restore credentials and access to their reporters while litigation proceeds. nytimes.com/2026/09/23/busin…

"America is NOT better off with presidents treating press credentials as rewards for softball questions and fawning coverage. Today’s decision reinforces that our free and independent press is a fundamental part of our constitutional framework." –@WillatFIRE

This White House press ban is illegal and unconstitutional.
