CNN Reporter’s Children Will Be ‘Sickened and Embarrassed’ by Her, White House Says
Trump accused Holmes of reporting fake news during a question about military coordination with South Korea, with the exchange circulating widely on social media.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump berated CNN White House correspondent Kristen Holmes during an Oval Office event honoring teenage lifeguard Ryder Williams, calling her a "fake reporter" after she questioned him about North Korean military exercises.
- Holmes attempted to ask whether North Korean leader Kim Jong-un requested a reduction in joint military exercises with South Korea, a topic Trump had addressed in a social media post on Sunday.
- Trump also dismissed reports regarding poor food supplies and conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, claiming the carrier has been "beautifully maintained" during its nine months at sea.
- Following the exchange, the White House's Rapid Response 47 account on X denounced Holmes as a "disgraceful, humiliating embarrassment," while CNN defended her, stating she asked a "tough, relevant, and newsworthy question."
- This confrontation follows a documented pattern of the president targeting female journalists who question him, including previous attacks on New York Times reporter Katie Rogers and Bloomberg's Catherine Lucey.
