Trump Fires Off Blistering Pair Of Tweets at NY Times For Its Coverage Of The ‘Trump Phenomena’


Donald TrumpPresident-elect Donald Trump isn’t letting his criticism of major media institutions abate in the wake of his victory.

On Sunday, the real-estate mogul fired off a series of tweets slamming the New York Times for its coverage of Trump’s supporters, mocking an open-letter publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. and executive editor Dean Baquet addressed to readers questioning whether the Times underestimated Trump’s support.

“Wow, the @nytimes is losing thousands of subscribers because of their very poor and highly inaccurate coverage of the ‘Trump phenomena,'” Trump wrote.

The president-elect continued:

“The @nytimes sent a letter to their subscribers apologizing for their BAD coverage of me. I wonder if it will change – doubt it?”

In an interview with CBS’ “60 Minutes” scheduled to air Sunday, Trump said he would be “very restrained” with his use of Twitter in the Oval Office. In the days leading up to the election, Trump’s team had deemed that social media account so damaging to his presidential chances that aides actually wrested control of his tweets from him.

Since that interview, taped Friday, Trump has teed off on protesters and the press on the social media platform. Minutes after his attack on the Times, Trump also paid compliments to another vocal critic of his campaign, former GOP nominee Mitt Romney:

“Mitt Romney called to congratulate me on the win. Very nice!”

“Jeb Bush, George W and George H.W. all called to express their best wishes on the win. Very nice!”

“Governor John Kasich of the GREAT, GREAT, GREAT State of Ohio called to congratulate me on the win. The people of Ohio were incredible!”
