a lot of other autocrats too happy to pick that up and substitute the nationality of choice for the american people. so what happens in washington doesn t stay in the press secretary sarah huckabee sanders was given an opportunity to speak out on the importance of press freedom and freedom of the press around the world. and i want to play you what she said when she was asked about this. is the white house concerned at all about authoritarian regimes adopting this phrase, fake news, to try to delegitimize the press? and does president trump bear any responsibility for the popularization of this phrase among some world leaders? i think the white house is concerned about false and inaccurate information being pushed out and to mislead the american people. our concern is making sure that the information that the people receive in this country is fair and accurate.
