Bloomberg reporters were still able to attend Trump rallies as part of the White House pool, though the ban applied to the outlet's campaign reporters seeking credentials.

In light of the former New York City mayor ending his presidential bid on Monday, the news outlet's editor-in-chief said it would return to its typical election coverage.
