President Trump unveils 'Fake News Award'; takes dig at NYT, CNN, ABC
Trump reveals his 'Fake News' list
The GOP article took digs at journalists belonging to the The New York Times’ Paul Krugman and ABC News' Brian Ross.
President Trump took to Twitter to reveal the "Fake News Awards" linking it to a published article on the Republican Party's website - gop.com which crashed minutes after he made his revelation.
The "highly-anticipated" list, as the headline said included names of famous media houses including The New York Times, CNN, ABC News, Washinton Post among others.
In the article headlined: "The Highly-Anticipated 2017 Fake News Awards", the ranking was as follows: 1. The New York Times 2: ABC News3: CNN 4:TIME 5: Washington Post 6: CNN 7: CNN on reporting about Anthony Scaramucci’s meeting with a Russian 8: Newsweek9: CNN on reporting ex-FBI director James Comey 10: New York Times.
At the end, the article said, "last but not the least", "RUSSIA COLLUSION!" Russian collusion is perhaps the greatest hoax perpetrated on the American people. THERE IS NO COLLUSION!
