White House Cancels Monday’s Coronavirus Briefing As Donald Trump Again Rails About Media Coverage

deadline.com:

By Ted Johnson The White House removed a coronavirus briefing from its schedule for Monday, as President Donald Trump continued to rail against the news media.

Guidance issued to reporters on Sunday indicated that the briefing would be held, even though Trump tweeted a day earlier that they were “not worth the time & effort.” Trump still is expected to make remarks and perhaps take questions from reporters at a 4 PM ET meeting with industry executives.

The president has been lashing out at media coverage of his remarks at a briefing on Thursday, in which he suggested the use of disinfectants in the human body be tested as a way to fight the coronavirus.
