With regards to Thor Benson and his piece "How Trump might go after the Press" you might be interested to know that while he occupied the WH in January 2018 his administration made a request to the producers of the movie "The Post" which focused on the now historic efforts of the press in the early 70s to print the classified information it had come into possession of from the late Daniel Ellsberg. The request stated that the WH wanted to show it at both the WH and Camp David.
