Perhaps a new meeting will be set up with the @nytimes. In the meantime they continue to cover me inaccurately and with a nasty tone! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 22, 2016

Trump also pointed to increased complaints against the newspaper.

“I can fully understand that – but why announce?” he asked.

The failing @nytimes just announced that complaints about them are at a 15 year high. I can fully understand that - but why announce? — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 22, 2016

Trump on Monday met with top executives and news anchors and hosts from major television networks.

In its coverage of that meeting, the Times said Trump “let them have it.”

He had planned to next meet with editors and reporters at the Times, which he frequently criticized during the presidential campaign and after winning the election.

The newspaper announced earlier this month that it added 41,000 new subscriptions in the week after the election.
