On September 19, US President Donald Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that it is “illegal” for TV networks to consistently criticize him. He argued, “They’ll take a great story and they’ll make it bad… I think that’s really illegal, personally.” Trump cited free airwaves provided by the government and expressed frustration over negative coverage during his election, claiming it was a “miracle” he won when “97 percent of the stories… are bad.” n18oc_crux
