Obama: Unnamed TV network attacks White House
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama says one television network is “entirely devoted to attacking my administration.”
Obama didn’t name the network during an interview with CNBC on Tuesday, but his administration has often taken issue with Fox News. When the interviewer asked if Obama meant Fox News, the president didn’t respond.
Instead, Obama says the unnamed network seldom runs any positive stories about his White House. Obama says the network has a “pretty big megaphone” to attack his views.
Fox television did not carry his most recent prime-time press conference, drawing rebuke from the White House. Fox News did air the event.
The two networks share a parent company but are run independently.
