Vermin: If Fox news is actively engaged in protesting the government then, yes, their acces should be restricted. They shouldn't be censored

but there's nothing that requires they get the same access as news groups that are either unbiased or biased in favor of the admin.
Should they be shut out entirely? Have their passes to the news breeifings stripped? No. But they shouldn't expect to get the same access to government officials when they are *actively* supporting protests against the government.
If they simply offered greater coverage to protests without actively offering support, I'd feel differently. It's the giving money to and organization of these protests that is where I have issues.
They've stopped even pretending at fair and balanced at that point.
