I believe Biden blocked White House access to over 440 reporters he didn’t approve of. I don’t recall the press raising a stink now having anything to say about it back then, so I guess it’s only a threat to our freedom when the other guy does it

If you're picking "no, presidents choose access" — does that hold if the next president bars Fox instead? Curious where the line sits.
