White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended the decision to block the Associated Press from access to an Oval Office event, saying that they were trying to hold the news organization “accountable” for not renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America.

The Associated Press said the White House barred its reporter from Tuesday’s Oval Office executive order signing because of the AP style guidance on using the name Gulf of Mexico versus Gulf of America.

The White House blocked an Associated Press reporter from attending an event in the Oval Office after demanding the news agency alter its style on the Gulf of Mexico, which President Donald Trump has ordered renamed to the Gulf of America.
