The White House defended President Donald Trump's attack on two journalists over the past few days. According to administration officials, the president's actions were a proportionate response to unfair questions. However, many experts and public figures condemned the head of state's behavior, calling it a threat to press freedom. At the center of the scandal are interviews in which journalists asked questions that Trump considered hostile. The White House stated that the president has the right to defend himself against what he considers unfair attacks.
