{mosads}Trump last week tweeted that he would announce the “media awards” Monday.
“I will be announcing THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR on Monday at 5:00 o’clock,” Trump tweeted.
“Subjects will cover Dishonesty & Bad Reporting in various categories from the Fake News Media. Stay tuned!” he said.
His tweet came after his campaign asked supporters to help him award a “Fake News Trophy.”
Andrés has been a staunch critic of Trump in the past. He canceled his planned restaurant at the president’s D.C. hotel after Trump announced his candidacy with a speech that many found to be racist against Hispanics.
Last year, Andrés offered a free drink at any of his Washington, D.C., restaurants to employees at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau amid a dispute over who was in charge of the agency.
