A federal judge will issue a ruling in the lawsuit CNN brought against Donald Trump and White House officials after correspondent Jim Acosta’s press credentials were revoked.

• A decision is set for 3 p.m. eastern Thursday, Nov. 15, 2018, though this could change.
• CNN filed a lawsuit against Donald Trump and senior administration officials after Acosta’s press pass was revoked.
• Acosta’s press pass was yanked after a confrontation during a post-election press conference with Donald Trump Nov. 7.
• After the incident, the White House posted what experts say is a doctored video clip showing Acosta making physical contact with the intern holding the microphone provided for members of the media.
• That action was cited as one of the reasons for removing his credentials.
• However, independent analysis of the video as well as both eyewitness accounts and other imagery from the press conference showed it to be faked.
• CNN’s lawsuit has gained the support of numerous news organizations, including Fox News.

A federal judge in DC will rule Thursday at 3pm ET on @CNN and @Acosta lawsuit seeking the immediate restoration of his @WhiteHouse press credentials. @RTDNA stands with the plaintiffs. #FirstAmendment https://t.co/gHyP3spZRO
