CHICAGO (CN) – Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers does not have to allow a right-wing think tank access to his press conferences, a federal appeals panel affirmed Friday.
The conservative John K. MacIver Institute for Public Policy sued the Democratic governor in 2019, claiming the organization’s opposing viewpoint was to blame for reporters from the news section of its website being barred from attending Evers’ events.
