Trump suggests CNN, NY Times may fire Iran reporters
President Trump suggested that CNN and the New York Times may fire the reporters who wrote about a preliminary, “low confidence” Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) assessment that the strikes on Iran likely only set the regime’s nuclear program back by several months.
Trump made the unverified claim on Truth Social Thursday morning.

“Rumor is that the Failing New York Times and Fake News CNN will be firing the reporters who made up the FAKE stories on the Iran Nuclear sites because they got it so wrong,” he wrote.
The president has vehemently disputed that assessment in the preliminary report and argued that Iran’s three facilities the military struck were “totally obliterated.”
It is unclear what evidence he has that those outlets were considering firing their reporters.
“Lets see what happens?” Trump added.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth held a press briefing Thursday morning to hit back at reporting on the DIA assessment.
CNN and the New York Times have stood by their reporting amid Trump’s criticism.
