President Donald Trump has just hinted on Twitter about the possibility of revoking media credentials because they report so much negative news about him despite all the positive things he's doing.
“The Fake News is working overtime. Just reported that, despite the tremendous success we are having with the economy & all things else, 91% of the Network News about me is negative (Fake). Why do we work so hard in working with the media when it is corrupt? Take away credentials?” Trump tweeted.
In the United States, journalists are required to obtain and present press credentials in order to enter and report from the White House, government agencies, Congress and the Supreme Court.
Since taking up the presidency, Trump has strongly called out the media for negative reports about him tgging them all 'Fake News'.
