President Trump announced on Tuesday evening that he will be naming the recipients of his newly established media awards.
"I will be announcing THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR on Monday at 5:00 o'clock. Subjects will cover Dishonesty & Bad Reporting in various categories from the Fake News Media. Stay tuned!" Trump wrote on Twitter.
The president offered no further information regarding the number of awards to be given or which news outlets and reports are on the shortlist.
Based on his previous tweets about "fake news" and the "dishonest media," the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN and NBC News will likely be among the recipients.
His previous comments also suggest reporting involving the "Russia thing," special counsel Robert Mueller, and Democrats in the House and Senate will dominate the list.
Fox News, on the other hand, will likely wind up empty-handed.
Not long after announcing the awards, Trump tweeted a directive to watch Sean Hannity's show.
