OAN’s primary White House correspondent, Chanel Rion, is regularly called on by Trump and McEnany during briefings. The president has frequently praised the conservative cable network, finding it preferable to the much larger Fox News.
At Thursday’s briefing, Trump again called on Rion, who immediately deferred to Emel Akan of the Epoch Times. Akan asked how the United States would respond to the Chinese government’s, the Hong Kong media mogul, in an apparent crackdown on press freedom. Trump called it “a terrible thing” and then pivoted to a discussion of Hong Kong’s economy, saying the withdrawal of unspecified U.S. “incentives” would make it “very hard for Hong Kong to compete.
After criticizing the Obama administration’s nuclear deal with Iran, he added, “What you’ll see now is that other countries will come into that deal and you’ll have peace in the Middle East. And Biden doesn’t even know the names of the countries I’m talking about.”
Why would News media cover these when he’s more and more calling in tin hats loons.
Like the Russia spy hoax that you guys pushed?
Wow, they're both conspiracy theory dumping grounds -- no wonder realDonaldTrump loves them. BidenHarris
Anyone that would vote to put a democrat in charge of anything after seeing all the examples of their work... Is Insane.
Anything to win. Trump has been in bed with unscrupulous characters for 50 years.
No one amplifies hoaxes like WAPO and other brainwashing main stream media: Trump/Russia hoax, Kavanaugh/Ford hoax, Trump’s a racist hoax, Trump Impeachment hoax, etc, etc. More and more Americans are waking up to the deception.
