Former President Donald Trump tore into the New York Post this week – a media outlet that was once one of his biggest boosters.

“Since the New York Post went bad on Trump and they have gone bad, their numbers have fallen tremendously,” Trump began in a short clip posted to social media.

“People aren’t buying it. They don’t want to read that. The New York Post has treated me great for almost a lifetime,” the 2024 GOP frontrunner continued, adding:

And now, for whatever reason, and I guess it’s radical left or the RINO stuff, they have gotten really bad and it’s ridiculous. But the numbers are down. Their numbers of readers and everything else has gone down tremendously. Great people are tired of hearing fake news. The New York Post used to be so good, but not anymore. We have to get it back before it’s too late because frankly, if they don’t change, there will be no more New York Post and that would be sad. Thank you.

The New York Post, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp, has been covering Trump’s various ongoing legal troubles – as has the rest of the American media.

In recent days the Post ran headlines like “Mar-a-Lago was only worth $27M despite Trump Org. claiming $517M to gain edge: trial evidence,” and “Trump fraud trial live updates: ‘Defeated’ ex-prez calls for case to end after storming out of courtroom” – which undoubtedly irked Trump

The paper however continues to be staunchly on the right and opinion columnist Miranda Devine continues her coverage of President Joe Biden. Devine’s latest headline reads, “Anatomy of a Biden family ‘cover-up’ executed by our own FBI and DOJ.”
