Donald trump calls cnn fake news

By The Washington Post | PUBLISHED: July 13, 2018 at 3:19 pm | UPDATED: July 13, 2018 at 3:20 pm By Paul Farhi | Washington Post President Donald Trump thought he was in friendly territory when he decided Thursday to give an exclusive interview to Britain’s Sun newspaper, a racy, pro-Trump tabloid owned by friend-of-Trump Rupert Murdoch. It all went bloody well wrong. At least according to Trump. The president on Friday hauled out a familiar Trumpism – “fake news” – to describe the Sun’s write-up of Trump’s own words knifing British Prime Minister Theresa May for her handling of Britain’s exit from the European Union, known as Brexit. “I didn’t criticize the prime minister,” he said at a joint news conference with May, a few hours after the Sun splashed the story across its front page.
