Trump bans Iowa paper behind ‘blowhard’ slam

(CNN)The Des Moines Register, Iowa’s largest newspaper, reported early Friday evening that it has been barred from attending a Donald Trump campaign event in Iowa after the paper’s editorial board called on him to drop out of the race.

A Register article said Friday that the Trump campaign had informed the paper that its reporters were not welcome at The Make America Great Again Rally and Family Picnic on Saturday in Oskaloosa. The campaign denied them press credentials, reporters said.

“We are disappointed that Mr. Trump’s campaign has taken the unusual step of excluding Register reporters from covering his campaign event in Iowa on Saturday because he was displeased with our editorial,” Register editor Amalie Nash said in a statement to her paper. “We hope Mr. Trump’s campaign will revisit its decision instead of making punitive decisions because we wrote something critical of him.”
