Donald Trump Announced the Winners of His ''Fake News'' Awards

The Nation

US President Donald Trump has announced the winners of his self-proclaimed "Fake News" awards. The so-called "awards" were presented in list form and specified particular stories about his presidency, some of which have previously resulted in apologies, The Telegraph reports.

He gave the broadcaster CNN four of his awards. The US president singled out The New York Times twice while the broadcaster ABC and the magazines Time and Newsweek were each mentioned once. 

Claims of "collusion" between the Trump campaign and Russia - a topic which has overshadowed the presidency and is being investigated by a special counsel - was also named.  

However the president was mocked online after a link he posted to the list, which was hosted on the Republican Party's website, failed to load.

A spokesman for the party later said that the surge in traffic had crashed the website, noting it received more hits than ever before.
