During the press conference yesterday, the President-elect Donald Trump, slammed CNN and Buzzfeed for reporting fake news. As a reminder, the news broke out yesterday that Kremlin is in possession of files about Mr. Trump’s private life and finances.
Speaking at the press conference, the incoming president of the United States he described BuzzFeed as a failing news organization. He stated: “As far as Buzzfeed which is a failing pile of garbage writing it, I think they’re going to suffer the consequences, and they already are.”
Also, he refused to take any question from BuzzFeed and CNN representatives at the conference, branding them “fake news”.
After the “failing pile of garbage” comment, BuzzFeed decided to take the tense relationship with Donald Trump to a whole new level by selling merchandise with that quote. There are several items in their official store including T-shirt, garbage can, bumper stickers, and so on.
