White House bars CNN from travelling with Trump on Air Force One
CNN was scheduled to fly with US President Donald Trump for his trip to Tennessee on Saturday.

What the coverage shows
Most outlets in this set focus on the White House’s defense of the pro-Trump Fox ad, with The Guardian, The Hill and Newsweek all emphasizing the administration’s “public service announcement” framing. The Guardian is alone in foregrounding Democrats’ accusation that the ad could be illegal propaganda, while The Hill quotes the White House line that “patriotism isn’t partisan.” Several other outlets in the grouped coverage instead center the separate Trump-Xi summit or the earlier press-access fight, so the ad story is not the only frame in play.
