Donald Trump is known for his blunt remarks to the press, but one exchange aboard Air Force One between the president and a female reporter has gone viral after he called her, “piggy.” The journalist’s identity was later reported as Bloomberg’s Catherine Lucey , though she has yet to comment on the matter publicly.
Nevertheless, several well-known journalists came to Lucey’s defense. CNN’s Kaitlan Collins tweeted , “My colleagues in the White House press corps, @marykbruce and @catherine_lucey, both do a great job.”
