US President Donald Trump on Wednesday termed the popular New York Times newspaper as "the enemy of the people", after it published a report accusing the political leader of using "intimidation, pressure and humiliation" on the machinery of federal law enforcement.
In a report published Wednesday, the 168-year-old prestigious daily with a circulation of over 571,000, stated, "An examination by The New York Times reveals the extent of an even more sustained, more secretive assault by Mr Trump on the machinery of federal law enforcement."
Reacting to the report, Trump tweeted, "The New York Times reporting is false. They are a true ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!"
