United Nations, August 6 (RHC)-- United Nations officials have condemned U.S. President Donald Trump's rhetoric against the media.
In a joint statement, U.N. special rapporteurs at the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, David Kaye and Edison Lanza, said of Trump: "These attacks run counter to the country's obligations to respect press freedom and international human rights law. We are especially concerned that these attacks increase the risk of journalists being targeted with violence."
The warning by the U.N. officials comes as Trump continued to assail the media. At a recent campaign rally in Pennsylvania, Trump referred to reporters as "these horrible, horrendous people."
