Trump tells FCC to punish journalist for calling his election results "mixed"
Trump furious at NBC's Kristen Welker for saying he had mixed results in primary endorsements.
President Donald Trump has instructed the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to take action against NBC journalist Kristen Welker, who recently referred to his election endorsement results as "mixed." Trump claimed that Welker's statement was a "purposeful inaccuracy" and demanded she be held accountable for her comments on the public airwaves, which he believes should not be allowed.
In a series of Truth Social posts, Trump articulated his frustration with what he perceives as biased media reporting, including an attack on New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman, whom he described as "unattractive" and demanded that she reveal any earnings from her reporting on him.
