close Video Howard Kurtz: Why veteran anchor Ted Koppel is slamming NY Times, Washington Post President Trump has been aiming his online invective at a whole lot of targets, including the husband of his White House counselor. And it's easy to get distracted when the president of the United States is using phrases like "total loser" and "husband from hell" to describe Washington lawyer George Conway, who constantly torches Kellyanne's boss on Twitter. But whether Trump is slamming social media bias, "SNL" reruns or "fake news" (applauding the Brazilian president for using that phrase), he is building the case that those who control the flow of information are consistently unfair to him.
