President Trump turns up the volume with days of anti-media attacks

President Donald Trump has made a "war" on the press a central part of his presidency. In the past few days, it feels as if he's turned up the volume another notch. Destroying any notion of a shared truth — pressuring people not to believe real reporting — that's the Trump era story in one sentence. "There has never been a time in the history of our Country that the Media was so Fraudulent, Fake, or Corrupt!" President Trump wrote. When his presidency is "looked back on," he said, he hopes that a "big part" of his legacy will be "the exposing of massive dishonesty" in the press.
