> The Justice Department is investigating whether five television networks broke federal competition laws by suspending shared coverage of Donald Trump after the White House withdrew credentials from reporters at CNN, MS Now and Politico. It has requested communications from ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC and Fox News, saying the boycott could violate the Sherman Act. The networks have not commented.
