During an Oval Office press conference on Monday, the President was asked by a reporter from MS NOW whether any alternatives existed for Americans seeking reimbursement related to alleged weaponization of the justice system.
The President first inquired about the reporter’s affiliation, then mocked the outlet, describing it as a terrible show with the worst people.
When the reporter repeated the question, the President dismissed it, stating he was unaware of any other avenues and promptly called on a different reporter.
As the second reporter began, the President interrupted again, labeling MS NOW a failed rebrand of a previous network and claiming it suffered from dwindling viewership.
The reporter attempted to clarify the former name, but the President continued his criticism, asserting the network’s decline and lack of audience.
This exchange follows a similar confrontation at a recent NATO summit in Ankara, where the President previously attacked the same outlet, accusing it of embarrassment over its former identity.
The repeated incidents highlight a pattern of the President publicly disparaging the network during press events.
