The SOTU is a Constitutional requirement, as is freedom of the press.
Denying television coverage of a Constitutional requirement is thus a violation of the First Ammendment.
Instead of a tit-for-tat violation of the Constitution, why not just bring the matter to the attention of the Supreme Court?
If that fails, then the House has the right to cut off funding.
Bring on the tit-for-tat.
Stop hesitating Republicans.
PUSH BACK.
