8 outletsThis is a brief, on-camera confrontation at the in September 2026 where President Trump, upon arrival, told CNN's Kaitlan Collins 'You should not be here covering me.' The exchange occurred amid an ongoing on CNN and followed a question about the war in Iran. It reflects the continued adversarial relationship between Trump and CNN, and the broader media-access restrictions his administration has imposed.
The claim is solid as reported by multiple reputable outlets (CNN, Forbes, CNBC, Axios, Sky News) that were present at the event. The primary source is the live press interaction itself, captured on video, so the reporting is close to the event. The exact wording and context are consistent across sources, though the specific reason for the 'you should not be here' comment (whether about the media ban or the Iran question) varies slightly by outlet.
This is genuinely new, breaking coverage from September 22, 2026, the day of the UN General Assembly appearance.
