White House blocks Associated Press from Oval Office, Air Force One over 'dishonest' Gulf of America reporting
Fox News
The White House has blocked the Associated Press from the Oval Office and Air Force One because the news organization has refrained from renaming "Gulf of Mexico" to the "Gulf of America."
White House Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Budowich took to X on Friday to elaborate, and indicated the AP would be kept from the Oval Office and Air Force One going forward.

"The Associated Press continues to ignore the lawful geographic name change of the Gulf of America. This decision is not just divisive, but it also exposes the Associated Press' commitment to misinformation. While their right to irresponsible and dishonest reporting is protected by the First Amendment, it does not ensure their privilege of unfettered access to limited spaces, like the Oval Office and Air Force One," Taylor Budowich posted on X.
