Yes. Seats are limited, an elected president may choose who gets them, including by what they publish; a barred outlet still reports freely, even if a later president bars yours

No. Access may be limited only by neutral rules like space or conduct; barring an outlet over its reporting punishes the press, even when the president believes it false
