President Trump clashed with a reporter on Sunday during a press briefing on the coronavirus outbreak in the Rose Garden.
"PBS NewsHour" reporter Yamiche Alcindor questioned Trump during the briefing over recent comments he made during an interview with Fox News's Sean Hannity about whether some requests from governors related to the outbreak were overblown or unnecessary.
Trump responded by first denying that he had made the comments, which were reported by multiple news outlets at the time, before accusing Alcindor of acting "threatening" during the briefing.
"Why don't you act in a little more positive? ... It's always get ya, get ya, get ya," Trump said to Alcindor. "You know what? That's why nobody trusts the media anymore."
"That's why you used to work for the [New York] Times and now you work for somebody else," he continued, speaking to Alcindor. "Look, let me tell you something. Be nice. Don't be threatening."

Yet in the bill who gets MILLIONS of dollars, yep you guessed it, NPR and PBS
I’d be OK with PBS if they would only run Ancient Aliens. It doesn’t get enough airtime on History Channel.
RUDE, UGLY, FAT, SPIKEY short hair, leftist PIG!
Why do our tax dollars have to subsidize these rats? Why does PBS even exist?
Honestly I don’t know why government needs to directly fund any media at all. Its private sector business. They make a lot of profit schilling shows and toys and books.

President Trump today at the White House said to me: “Be nice. Don't be threatening.” I’m not the first human being, woman, black person or journalist to be told that while doing a job.
