The White House is directing federal agencies to cancel their subscriptions to The New York Times and The Washington Post, two flagship newspapers that consistently break news about and relevant to the president's administration.
The plan, first reported by The Wall Street Journal on Thursday and confirmed by CBS News, was floated by President Trump earlier this week in an interview with Fox News. The Post and the Times are some of his favorite targets to denigrate as "fake news."
"The media is corrupt. Not all media," Mr. Trump told Fox News' Sean Hannity. "Look, I know some — some great people, including you, but I know some great journalists. ... The New York Times, which is a fake newspaper — we don't even want it in the White House anymore. We're going to probably terminate that and The Washington Post. They're fake."

The Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos. You'd think he would be friendly towards a President that continues to help the rich dodge their tax duties.
The on line subscription is provided at no charge ( free) to the addresses with .gov
This will save hundre of thousands of dollars . Sorry , I guess free does not cost?
