The New York Times Just Fact Checked Trump Over His ‘Failing’ Claims
New York Times hits back.
The New York Times shot back at Donald Trump after the president once again claimed the paper of record is “failing.”
The Times corrected Trump saying its business is in fact, “thriving.”
On Monday afternoon, Trump’s tweets claimed The New York Times has “big losses and massive unfunded liability.”
“How much longer will the failing nytimes, with its big losses and massive unfunded liability (and non-existent sources), remain in business?” Trump said on Twitter.
The Times’ public relations team quickly fired back at Donald Trump saying their paid subscriptions are at record highs.
“That is incorrect. NYT’s business is thriving. Most ever paid subs: 3.3 million; and growing profit, income and revenues,” The New York Times tweeted
