Trump, who has frequently slammed the media since before he took office, originally floated the idea of opening a “fake news trophy” contest in November.
“We should have a contest as to which of the Networks, plus CNN and not including Fox, is the most dishonest, corrupt and/or distorted in its political coverage of your favorite President (me),” Trump said then. “They are all bad. Winner to receive the FAKE NEWS TROPHY!”
