A day after another conflict between Donald Trump and CNN correspondent Jim Acosta, host of the network's "State of the Union," Jake Tapper, announced that the White House had canceled his interview with the National Security Advisor John Bolton. "We are told Amb Bolton remains quite ready to do the interview, but the White House has canceled it," Tapper said in a tweet published Saturday.
Update: @AmbJohnBolton was locked up for @CNNSOTU . Then the president attacked CNN during his British bail, and our WH correspondent tried to ask a question. We are told Amb. Bolton remains quite ready to do the interview but the White House has canceled it

On Friday, at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Theresa May, Trump shouted Acosta when he tried to ask the president questions. The POTUS responded by calling CNN "fake news" and saying that it would not answer any questions from the network. He then goes on to a question from Fox News reporter John Roberts, who will defend CNN and MSNBC afterwards.
White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders responded to Tapper's tweet Saturday by writing: "
In fact, a journalist from @CNN did not respected @POTUS & PM May at their press conference. Instead of rewarding bad behavior, we decided to redefine the appearances on television for those in charge of the administration. https://t.co/58LaJH6WaD

"I know NBC's Kristin Welker, she's honest because the day is long, for the president to call him dishonest is unfair" Roberts said in a statement to TheWrap. "I also worked at CNN, there are good journalists working there and risking their lives to tell stories all over the world, and proclaiming a general condemnation of the network as" false news "is also unfair."
Bolton was scheduled to appear to discuss ongoing Trump administration negotiations with North Korea, as well as reports that he would oust NSC officials with Stephen Miller's radical policies against migrants. there is no word on whether the interview with Tapper will be postponed.
