I'm going to have to give up on you unless you can produce non-doctored original evidence of his attacking any part of the press except unfair reporting/fake news. Even in the press briefing you didn't watch before scolding me to do so, he talks about the press versus fake news.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
