Headline: Ex-Post editor Martin Baron: Trump team will do ‘everything to undermine public confidence in the press’ “

Martin Baron, the former executive editor for The Washington Post, said in a new interview that President-elect Trump’s team will do ‘everything’ to undermine confidence in the press.

Baron offered the remarks as Trump won a big victory when ABC settled a lawsuit with him involving incorrect comments by anchor George Stephanopoulos.

Trump days later launched a new suit against The Des Moines Register and pollster Ann Seltzer.
