What people are talking about today: President Trump announced the winners of his fake news awards, or as he once referred to it, his honorifics for “the most corrupt & biased of the Mainstream Media.” CNN was the big winner, with four awards; Trump is apparently still upset about the way CNN portrayed how he fed goldfish in Japan. That was No. 6 on the list.
There was no ceremony or pomp to the awards; Trump made the announcement via Twitter link. For about an hour, the link to the Republican National Committee website didn’t work, and people saw a message asking them to try again later. NBC says all the traffic crashed the site.
