White House Gives Credentials to Far-Right-Wing Gateway Pundit
--------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, the White House has given press credentials to a reporter
with the far-right-wing outlet Gateway Pundit, one of the most fervently
pro-Trump blogs. It's considered even farther to the right than
Breitbart Media. Even conservative commentator Erick Erickson has
criticized the move, writing, "I'm not sure there is a greater purveyor
of fake news … Gateway Pundit runs nonsense and I still have not
determined if it is intentional or just because of some level of
insanity."
