Trump's Outburst: Demands NBC Reporter's Removal from Plane.
TL;DR Summary
Former US President Donald Trump ordered NBC News correspondent Vaughn Hillyard to be removed from his plane in March after Hillyard repeatedly asked about the hush money probe. Audio obtained by Vanity Fair shows Trump becoming visibly incensed and throwing two phones onto a nearby seat or object. It is unclear if Hillyard was actually removed from the plane. Trump has faced numerous clashes with the press, including famously referring to CNN's Jim Acosta as "fake news" and preventing him from asking questions during a press briefing in 2017.
