President Donald Trump offered support for Sinclair Broadcast Group on Monday after the nation's largest owner of local TV stations drew criticism and derision over the weekend for a promotional campaign that echoed Trump's frequent complaints about "fake news" in the mainstream media. "So funny to watch Fake News Networks, among the most dishonest groups of people I have ever dealt with, criticize Sinclair Broadcasting for being biased," Trump tweeted Monday morning. "Sinclair is far superior to CNN and even more Fake NBC, which is a total joke." Sinclair, based outside Baltimore, began airing the promotional campaign last week during newscasts on its stations across the country.
