President Trump condemned Norah O'Donnell for quoting the gunman's manifesto during a Sunday interview, insisting he is not the person implied by the material and calling her a 'disgrace' for reading it on 60 Minutes as tensions with the press flare after the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
Trump described the moments after the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting on 60 Minutes, praising Secret Service, saying the gunman was a sick, radicalized person whose manifesto he referenced, and urging the dinner be rescheduled within 30 days.

The program will relaunch on January 27 with a new format featuring multiple co-anchors, including John Dickerson and Maurice DuBois.
