New York mayor criticizes press passes for Mangione supporters

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said three supporters of Luigi Mangione should not have received press passes to attend a court hearing. The group, known as the Mangionistas, attended Monday's proceeding in the case of the accused killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

Mamdani spoke at a press conference on Tuesday and announced his administration would review the process for issuing press credentials. He said the three individuals do not fall within a good-natured debate about access for members of the media.
