The President's Profit Motive: A Threat to Transparency The latest salvo in the ongoing battle between press freedom and presidential profiteering has been fired.
A coalition of news outlets and advocacy groups has sued Donald Trump over his new paid service, Truth API, which allows Wall Street firms to pay up to $100,000 a month for early access to the president's posts on U. S.
policy issues. The plaintiffs' concerns are rooted in the Constitution's First Amendment, which guarantees that government information is available on equal terms to all members of the press and public.
