WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post on Sunday that NBC's Kristen Welker will be reported to the Federal Communications Commission for "rebuke or punishment," after he said she reported the Republican president had mixed results in his endorsement of candidates.
"Kristen Welker, the Unpopular 'Hostess' of the once great Meet the Press, now considered Meet the Fake Press, just stated that Donald Trump has 'mixed results' on his Endorsements of Candidates, when the recent WINS of Darline Graham and Mike Mazzei, stand at 100% for the U.S. Senate, and 98% for the U.S. House," Trump wrote.
"Because of this purposeful inaccuracy, she will be reported to the FCC for rebuke or punishment. Unfortunately, she is not the only one," Trump added in the post.
NBC did not immediately respond to a question for comment.
The FCC is also investigating NBC-parent Comcast's relationships with its local broadcast TV affiliates.
