Donald Trump’s hate towards the media just reached its peak. He and his White House team just blocked several networks from media briefing.
Everything happened yesterday. The president lashed out at the people’s enemy, the media and also, at FBI after the leaks. He thinks that the FBI is putting the country at risk.
Trump took part of a conference, where he exposed his thoughts. Once again, he attacked the media, which only promotes fake news and ruin his image.
After Trump delivered his speech, hours later, the Press Secretary blocked several media networks from attending his briefing.
In the evening, Trump bashed the media some more on his Twitter account. He wrote that the media and all the fake news are a threat to the country. He pointed at two publications: CNN, with whom he has a personal thing and New York Times. The two were banned from attending Sean Spicer’s briefing.
Amongst the ones banned were: Buzzfeed, Los Angeles Times and BBC. Others were welcomed to the event.
This just made the already fragile relations between the press and the White House even more tensioned.
After, a spokesperson from the White House said that they organized everything so that everyone would know what happened.
CNN, which was excluded, responded. They said that this is the administration’s way of treating publications that write news they don’t like. They vowed to continue writing their news just like they did until now.
The New York Times also released a statement, saying that something like this never happened in any presidency. The media needs to have freedom.
Trump always had a problem with the media, even before he got elected. Now, it only became worse.
