The Week: Trump vs the Press, Meta’s AI Win, and the Turning Political Tide

Meta's low-cost, data-rich Muse agent is upending the AI cost narrative just as Iran and Canada tensions threaten GOP midterm chances.

• Press access battle: Trump banned CNN, MSNBC and Politico from the White House, prompting Fox and other outlets to boycott the briefing room in solidarity.
• CNN sale clears hurdle: 12 states settled lawsuits blocking David Ellison's Paramount acquisition of CNN; Semaphore's Rohan Goswami says business realities (CNN throws off $500-600M EBIT annually) should protect its editorial independence.
