US President Donald Trump has stepped up his feud with the media by
tweeting a mock video of himself tackling and repeatedly striking a man
in a business suit, his face replaced by the CNN logo, outside a
wrestling ring.
The video was a modified version of a 2007 appearance by Mr Trump at
World Wrestling Entertainment's WrestleMania 23 promotion, in which Mr
Trump "takes down" WWE chairman Vince McMahon.
It is not clear who produced the mock video, which was posted on an
alt-right forum on Reddit a few days before it was shared by the
President, but it was posted from Mr Trump's account and retweeted by
the official POTUS account.
As a presidential candidate and as commander-in-chief, Mr Trump has
repeatedly made known his disdain for the media, calling it "the enemy
of the American people" and frequently referring to mainstream news
organisations as "failing" or "fake news".
