WASHINGTON — The White House is facing backlash from press groups after booting The Wall Street Journal from a cohort of media outlets set to cover President Donald Trump's upcoming trip to Scotland."This attempt by the White House to punish a media outlet whose coverage it does not like is deeply troubling, and it defies the First Amendment," said Weijia Jiang, the president of the White House Correspondents' Association, in a statement.
