Trump Suggests Starting A News Network

Trump News Network?
President Trump, who is a near-constant strong critic of the news media, who he calls the "enemy of the people," "corrupt" and producers of "fake news," suggested the idea yesterday of starting a news network, specifically positioning it as way to counter CNN.

While speaking at an event in The Villages, Florida about Medicare, Trump said, "CNN is a voice that really seems to be the voice out there and it's a terrible thing for our country. We ought to start our own network and put some real news out there, because they are so bad for our country. We're looking at that. We should do something about it, too."

Trump has previously tweeted a suggestion of creating a, quote, "worldwide network to show the world the way we really are," as opposed to what he called unfair coverage by CNN. Additionally, towards the end of the 2016 presidential campaign, there was chatter about Trump possibly starting a news network if he lost the election.
