Trump: Washington Post 'Disgrace to Journalism'

President Donald Trump slammed The Washington Post Tuesday for its use of anonymous sources “that do not exist.”

The Washington Post is constantly quoting “anonymous sources” that do not exist. Rarely do they use the name of anyone because there is no one to give them the kind of negative quote that they are looking for. They are a disgrace to journalism but then again, so are many others!

The president has been a frequent critic of The Post and of the media overall, calling it fake news.

Trump has taken aim at “anonymous sources” before, unless they are in stories favorable to him, USA Today reported in May 2017.
