'Fake News Awards' Get Postponed

President Trump on Sunday pushed back the date for his “Fake News Awards” to Jan. 17, as opposed to this coming Monday, citing high interest.

“The Fake News Awards, those going to the most corrupt & biased of the Mainstream Media, will be presented to the losers on Wednesday, January 17th, rather than this coming Monday,” Trump wrote on Twitter.



According to The Hill, the president plans to travel to Tennessee and Georgia on Monday. It has been reported that Trump plans to attend the college football national championship game in Atlanta.

Trump announced last week that he would present “the most dishonest & corrupt media awards” on Monday to highlight what he calls "fake news."

Celebrity chef José Andrés offered a free lunch at any of his popular restaurants to winners, and the watchdog group American Oversight planned to hand out “Most Dishonest and Corrupt” awards to Trump administration officials on Monday as a response to Trump's plans.
