Donald Trump meets with The New York Times

President-elect Donald Trump visited The New York Times today in a meeting that lasted about 75 minutes at the publication’s headquarters.

Trump’s relationship with The New York Times has been rocky, with Trump posting tweets saying the newspaper is biased against him.

Reporters live-tweeted Trump’s comments and responses throughout the meeting. The topics, according to the tweets, were wide-reaching, including the Steve Bannon appointment, Syria, the Israel-Palestine conflict, Trump’s potential for conflicts of interest, and his meeting with President Barack Obama.

 

According to reporters, Trump ended the meeting saying he hopes that his relationship with The Times will improve.
