President Trump criticized biased media reports in his speech at CPAC, stating that media organizations should disclose their sources.
Trump says he doubts the authenticity of some of them.
“They shouldn’t be allowed to use sources unless they use somebody’s name… They have a professional obligation as members of the press to report honestly.”
Trump clarified that he doesn’t see all the media as an enemy. He just takes issue with biased reporting.
“In covering my comments, the dishonest media did not explain that I called the fake news the enemy of the people, the fake news. They dropped off the word ‘fake,’ and all of a sudden the story became the ‘media’ is the enemy, they take the word ‘fake’ out… so I’m not against the media, I’m not against the press,I don’t mind bad stories if I deserve them, and I love good stories, we won’t talk about that, I don’t get too many of them.”
