Donald Trump gave the broadcaster
CNN four of his "fake news" awards
on Wednesday as he used the
gimmick to escalate his attacks on
media.
The US president singled out The
New York Times twice while the
broadcaster ABC and the magazines
Time and Newsweek were each
mentioned once.
Claims of "collusion" between the
Trump campaign and Russia - a
topic which has overshadowed the
presidency and is being investigated
by a special counsel - was also
named.
The so-called "awards" were
presented in list form and specified
particular stories about his
presidency, some of which have
previously resulted in apologies.
However the president was mocked
online after a link he posted to the
list, which was hosted on the
Republican Party's website, failed to load. Link. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/01/18/fake-news-awardscnn-wins-taking-4-11-accolades-announced-donald/
