During a press conference on Thursday, President Donald Trump confirmed that the information being leaked about his administration is “real,” but he called the coverage of the leaks “fake news.”

WATCH:

Trump was also asked about the situation surrounding the resignation of Michael Flynn from his post as National Security Advisor to which he said he was not happy with the information Flynn gave to Vice President Mike Pence, although Flynn speaking to the Russian ambassador was “not wrong.”

Instead, the President focused on the act of leaking information being the bigger problem. “It’s an illegal process and the press should be ashamed of themselves,” Trump said.

Fox News’ John Roberts asked the president how he will investigate the leaks.

Trump responded saying that he wants to speak with his team, and that he has already spoken with the DOJ regarding the “criminal leaks.”
