Trump Cancels Meeting With New York Times
“Some, something. It depends on how much”, he told a panel of New York Times journalists.
He said in another tweet: “Perhaps a new meeting will be set up with the (at) nytimes. Not nice”, Trump tweeted earlier.
Trump, who frequently railed against the mainstream media on the campaign trail for being “so dishonest”, kept Monday’s rendezvous off the record, but a source with knowledge of the gathering said Trump singled out CNN boss Jeff Zucker – telling him, “I don’t like your network”.
“I don’t care about having anything to do” with anything outside the United States’ best interests, he said.

During a meeting with the New York Times on Tuesday, Trump talked about his conflicts of interests as he prepares to enter the White House, according to Times correspondent Maggie Haberman who attended the meeting.
The interview was announced earlier in the week, but then Trump cancelled the meeting on Tuesday morning because of an alleged dispute over the “ground rules” that were established.
On the policy front, Trump released a video late Monday in which he said his transition to power, which has at times been chaotic, “is working very smoothly, efficiently and effectively”. He said it would make his job easier.
The Times responded in a tweet, disputing Trump’s reason for the cancellation.
Asked about investigations in that interview, he said, “I’m going to think about it”. “I really liked him a lot”. That’s a big problem because you don’t cure that.as an example: child molesting.
He said he might have brought up wind farms when meeting with British politician and Brexit advocate Nigel Farage.
