Regarding Politico, three reporters and one photographer were initially granted permission to attend the event but learned on Tuesday that their credentials had been denied. A source informed Voice of America that this decision seems to be related to Politico's report about a white nationalist who worked on Trump's campaign in Pennsylvania and was subsequently fired. Politico has declined to comment to Voice of America. Voice of America has contacted Trump's campaign for a response, but no reply was received before the publication of this report.
