The Trump Administration has again targeted White House press credentials for CNN reporter Jim Acosta.
After a federal judge ordered that Acosta's credentials be temporarily restored last week, the White House sent Acosta a letter saying it had made the "preliminary decision" to suspend his pass.
The White House said Acosta would continue to hold his credentials while the 14-day judge's order was in effect.
The White House argues Acosta did not follow "basic standards" when he scrapped with US President Donald Trump at a news conference.
The letter from Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Communications Director Bill Shine, says that Trump is "aware of this preliminary decision and concurs".
