NEW YORK (AP) — Sources from Associated Press say President Donald Trump’s White House is taking on the role of media critic and asking for help from “everyday Americans.”
The White House launched a web portal it says will spotlight bias on the part of news outlets, targeting the Boston Globe, CBS News, The Independent and The Washington Post in its first two “media offenders of the week.”
It’s the latest wrinkle in the fight against what Trump, back in his first term, labeled “fake news.” The Republican president has taken outlets like CBS News and The Wall Street Journal to court over their coverage, is fighting The Associated Press in court over media access and has moved to dismantle government-run outlets like Voice of America.
Trump has also engaged in personal attacks, last month
