Trump has reportedly complained to Sean Hannity about Fox News treating him 'unfairly'


President Trump has reportedly been so concerned that Fox News is no longer loyal to him, he's been cornering the network's employees about it.
Trump has numerous times in recent weeks gone after Fox News, recently lashing out after one of its polls showed him losing to former Vice President Joe Biden. Fox News, Trump contended on Twitter, is "so different from what they used to be." He's been making similar complaints for months, including after the network hosted Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) for a debate. "Not surprisingly, @BretBaier and the 'audience' was so smiley and nice," Trump tweeted about the event. "Thanks for watching Mr. President," Baier tweeted in response.
But Trump hasn't just been raging about this on Twitter. The president, The Daily Beast reports, has "repeatedly" in recent weeks asked various people, "what the hell is going on at Fox?" He has also "grilled" some Fox employees like Sean Hannity, according to the report. “I've been good to them," Trump has reportedly complained, also bemoaning people on the network treating him "unfairly."

Trump has also, the report says, been encouraging his senior aides to "branch out and make sure to keep doing more and more shows that aren't on Fox News." The president's complaints seem unlikely to die down anytime soon, especially considering a Fox News staffer told The Daily Beast the internal reaction to this has been "more of an eyeroll than anything."
