President Trump on Thursday morning criticized NBC and ABC for their coverage of the investigation into his administration’s potential links to Russia, calling them “totally biased and fake news reports.”

“Just watched the totally biased and fake news reports of the so-called Russia story on NBC and ABC. Such dishonesty!” Trump tweeted.

It was not immediately clear what reporting Trump took issue with.

A bombshell Associated Press report revealed Wednesday that Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, signed a multimillion-dollar contract beginning in 2006 with Oleg Deripaska, a close associate of Vladimir Putin, to help advance the Russian leader’s interests around the world.

The White House on Wednesday rushed to distance itself from Manafort, saying Trump did not know of his secret work for a Russian oligarch.

The story fueled the growing controversy over the Trump team’s ties to Russia, which was rekindled Monday when FBI Director James Comey publicly confirmed the bureau is investigating whether Trump associates coordinated with Moscow to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
