As I've posted before...
The First Amendment guarantees the right of a free press TO THE PEOPLE; it does NOT guarantee the right of the New York Times or the Washington Post to exist in perpetuity.
If those "press" outlets fail to provide an honest product, a new press will emerge to replace them. "They" are not protected, the right of a free press is.

The first amendment isn't implicated at all. Trump wields no government power. He is a private citizen. He has no power to prevent the WaPo or anybody else from publishing whatver it desidres, other than whatever power a public figure has via the civil law of defamation.
Some WaPo flack was on FoxNews last night claiming that Trump was banning the WaPo from reporting on Trump - another risible claim. Part of the most dishonest people in the country.
