Speaking with Law360 [PDF] after being named one of the publication’s Media & Entertainment MVPs, partner Ted Boutrous identified “the string of victories in connection with efforts by the Trump administration to throttle freedom of the press” as his most significant accomplishment over the past 12 months. Ted has been at the forefront of several recent cases including: a lawsuit by The New York Times and reporter Julian Barnes over access to the Pentagon; National Public Radio suing over proposed withholding of funds by the Trump administration to NPR and PBS; and a battle over White House press passes involving CNN, MS NOW, and POLITICO.
