Trump Sparks Controversy With On-Camera Warning to Media
Former President Donald Trump has ignited a new wave of controversy after issuing a stark warning directed at the press. Speaking on-camera, he claimed “changes are coming” — not about policy, but about how the media operates.
The remarks came after Trump criticized what he called unfair coverage of a failed Iran operation. He accused journalists of being “out of control” and hinted at possible retaliation, a move many see as an attempt to intimidate.
Press freedom advocates reacted swiftly. The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) condemned the statement, warning it was a direct threat to the First Amendment. “This crosses a dangerous line,” the group said, stressing that media independence is vital in a democracy.
