Donald Trump Speech: How To Watch President-Elect's First Press Conference Since Election For Free [VIDEO]
President-elect Donald Trump is slated to give his first press conference since the election today, and here's how to watch it online.
Trump will be making statements and answering questions at New York City's Trump Tower starting at 11 a.m. ET. The conference comes at a pivotal point for Trump, with a new, unverified report from Buzzfeed News claiming there was "a continuing exchange of information during the campaign between Trump surrogates and intermediaries for the Russian government."
That report also claimed that Trump had hired prostitutes to perform golden showers while visiting Moscow.
In response, an outraged Trump took to Twitter to slam the reports:
FAKE NEWS - A TOTAL POLITICAL WITCH HUNT!

Russia just said the unverified report paid for by political opponents is "A COMPLETE AND TOTAL FABRICATION, UTTER NONSENSE." Very unfair!

Russia has never tried to use leverage over me. I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH RUSSIA - NO DEALS, NO LOANS, NO NOTHING!

I win an election easily, a great "movement" is verified, and crooked opponents try to belittle our victory with FAKE NEWS. A sorry state!

Intelligence agencies should never have allowed this fake news to "leak" into the public. One last shot at me.Are we living in Nazi Germany?

This will be Trump's first press conference since winning the Presidency. His previous press conference was in July, with the President-elect mostly communicating through Twitter or the occasional sit-down interview. He had previously scheduled a press conference for mid-December but chose to reschedule it instead.
