"Trump Revokes Washington Post's Campaign Press Credentials"

"U.S. Republican Donald Trump said on Monday he will no longer issue press credentials to the Washington Post, stopping the publication from gaining access to press areas at his presidential campaign events.

The Washington Post, based in the U.S. capital, is one the country's the most influential newspapers and has one of the largest circulations.

'They have no journalistic integrity and write falsely about Mr. Trump,' his campaign said in a statement explaining the decision. 'Mr. Trump does not mind a bad story, but it has to be honest.'"

Ginger Gibson and Emily Flitter report for Reuters June 13, 2016.
