The Veterans of Foreign Wars fragged its own veteran members for booing the media during President Donald Trump’s speech Tuesday to their annual convention being held in Kansas City, Missouri.

The VFW posted two statements to Twitter Tuesday afternoon attacking veterans for booing the media. The first was in response to Military Times deputy editor Lea Shane. The second was a formal statement by the VFW condemning veterans.

“Today, we were disappointed to hear some of our members boo the press during President Trump’s remarks. We rely on the media to spread the VFW message, and @CNN, @NBCNews, @ABC, @FoxNews, @CBSNews, & others on site today, were our invited guests. We were happy to have them there.”

The first VFW attack on veterans was prompted by Shane, who keyed off a tweet by Wall Street Journal reporter Ben Kesling who whined about the press being booed, “VFW convention attendees now booing the media. This morning I attended a House VA Committee hearing in order to make sure VA officials answered my questions abut the claims appeals process and complaints that it isn’t serving vets properly.”

Shane called out the VFW, “Not a good look for @VFWHQ. #VFWConvention”

The VFW replied, “Agreed. We were disappointed to hear some of our members boo the press. We rely on the media to help spread the VFW’s message, and @CNN, @NBCNews, @ABC, @FoxNews, @CBSNews, and others on site today, were our invited guests. We were happy to have them there.”
