Trump accuses Iran of spreading 'lies', blasts media for 'Disinformation, fake news'

New Delhi, Mar 16 (UNI) United States President Donald Trump accused Iran of resorting to ‘’Disinformation’ and ‘’Fake News’’ by using AI and blasted ‘’Radical Left-Wing’’ media for spreading ‘’lies’’ about the Iran war.
Accusing media outlets, including the Wall Street Journal, of ‘’spreading lies’ and using American Airwaves for anti-US propaganda, he said such media outlets should be booked for ‘’Treason.’’
Trujmp maintained that Iran is being 'decimated.' He described Iran as ‘’master of media manipulation and public relations,’’ and said that they (Iran) are militarily ineffective and weak, but are really good at “feeding” the very appreciative ‘’fake news media’’ false information. ‘’Now, AI has become another Disinformation weapon that Iran uses, quite well, considering they are being annihilated by the day,’’ he said on his social media platform on Monday (today).
Trump said Iran showed ‘’phony Kamikaze Boats,” shooting at various ships at sea, which looks ‘’wonderful, powerful, and vicious.’’ ‘’But these boats don’t exist — It’s all false information to show how tough their already defeated Military is!’’
The five US Refueling Planes that were supposedly struck down and badly damaged, according to the ‘’Wall Street Journal’s false reporting,’’ and others, are all in service, with the exception of one, which will soon be flying the skies, Trump claimed.
‘’Buildings and Ships that are shown to be on fire are not — It’s FAKE NEWS, generated by AI.’’
He accused Iran of working in close coordination with the fake news media, showing USS Abraham Lincoln Aircraft Carrier, one of the largest and most prestigious Ships in the World, burning uncontrollably in the Ocean.
Not only was it not burning, it was not even shot at — Iran knows better than to do that! The story was knowingly FAKE and those media outlets that generated it should be brought up on charges for treason for dissemination of false information.
The fact is, Iran is being decimated, and the only battles they “win” are those that they create through AI, and are distributed by corrupt media outlets.
He said the Radical Leftwing Press knows this full well, but continues to go forward with false stories and lies. That is why their approval rating is so low. He said they (media outlets) have no credibility.
Trump said he was thrilled that Brendan Carr, the Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), was looking at the licenses of some of these news organizations.
They get Billions of Dollars of free American Airwaves, and use it to perpetuate lies, both in news and almost all of their shows, including the ‘’late night morons’’, who get gigantic salaries for horrible ratings, and never get fired.
