A US judge has ordered the White House to let Associated Press (AP) journalists attend presidential events again. The White House had blocked AP after the news agency refused to call the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America." Judge Trevor McFadden ruled that the ban violated the First Amendment, which protects free speech. The AP welcomed the decision, calling it a victory for press freedom. Despite the ruling, AP journalists were still blocked from a Trump event on Tuesday night. The White House has until Sunday to appeal the decision. (PC: Getty Images)
