President Trump opted to post an unedited video of his interview with 60 Minutes on Facebook Thursday, prior to its airing this Sunday on CBS.
“Look at the bias, hatred and rudeness on behalf of 60 Minutes and CBS,” his caption reads.
CBS responded on Twitter, saying, “The White House’s unprecedented decision to disregard their agreement with CBS News and release their footage will not deter 60 Minutes from providing its full, fair and contextual reporting which presidents have participated in for decades.”
