CNN anchor Jake Tapper ripped President Trump’s attacks on the media as “deranged” on Friday after the president lashed out against what he views as “treasonous” coverage of the conflict with Iran.
“Reporting these facts isn’t treason, and it’s deranged for any president to say such a thing and potentially dangerous for the reporters he’s accusing of treason,” Tapper said during a segment on “The Lead.”
Trump scolded New York Times (NYT) reporter David Sanger earlier Friday as the longtime correspondent was pressing him about the U.S. military’s 38-day bombing campaign inside Iran.
Sanger wrote in a NYT report earlier this month that the U.S.’s core objectives in the war “clearly have not” been achieved, despite the Trump administration’s repeated assertions that they had. He noted that Tehran’s nuclear stockpile remained untouched, and the sides appeared no closer to a deal on constraining the program.
