Trump amped up his war with Fox News by insulting its coverage during a Fox News interview
President Donald Trump continued his simmering feud with Fox News, insulting the network Wednesday evening on one of its own programs during a phone-in to Sean Hannity.
- The president had been attacking his Democratic rivals when he pivoted to bash the media instead — claiming that even outlets like Fox News were "all on their side."
- Hannity chuckled approvingly when Trump mocked the channel's "Fair and Balanced" slogan.
- Though Fox News' right-leaning opinion hosts like Hannity generally portray Trump in a positive light, Trump has repeatedly hit out at Fox News during his presidency, characterizing it as insufficiently loyal to him and his party.
