Trump unleashes on Fox News: ‘They forgot the people who got them there’

President Trump slammed Fox News and its reporting in a series of tweets Sunday evening, claiming the conservative-leaning network is “changing fast” and forgetting “the people who got them there.”

“Watching @FoxNews weekend anchors is worse than watching low ratings Fake News @CNN, or Lyin’ Brian Williams,” the president said.

“But @FoxNews, who failed in getting the very BORING Dem debates, is now loading up with Democrats & even using Fake unsourced @nytimes as a ‘source’ of information (ask the Times what they paid for the Boston Globe, & what they sold it for (lost 1.5 Billion Dollars), or their old headquarters building disaster, or their unfunded liability? @FoxNews is changing fast, but they forgot the people who got them there!”

Earlier on Sunday, Trump called out The New York Times for reporting on a migrant detention center in Clint, Texas.

“The Fake News Media, in particular the Failing @nytimes, is writing phony and exaggerated accounts of the Border Detention Centers,” he tweeted.

The article in the Times revealed rampant disease, overcrowding and deficient facilities.

Fox News did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Trump’s tweet.

Trump is known to have a close relationship with many Fox News personalities. He has appeared on the network more than any other and frequently tweets segments from shows.

However, he has increasingly criticized it over its campaign coverage, particularly when the network chooses to cover 2020 Democrats.
