Stelter on Trump Calling Norah O’Donnell a ‘Disgrace’ on 60 Minutes: ‘Good Thing’ Having the Push and Pull

TRANSCRIPT:

STELTER: "You know, I’ll go out on a limb here and say I don’t think anything’s really going to change about the dynamic doing the president and the press. Just tonight, in this interview we called CBS anchor Norah O'Donnell a disgrace and said she was terrible for asking perfectly fair questions. This president wants attention, but he does not want accountability. Journalists are going to keep providing accountability in every way. For example, Trump today promoting his ballroom plan, journalists are going to keep scrutinizing that, keep asking questions about that. So the dynamic is not going to change, nor should it. It is a good thing to have that dynamic, that back-and-forth, that push-and-pull. That’s how it should work, and I don’t see that changing as a result of this."
