US President Donald Trump spends between four and eight hours a day watching television, The New York Times reported on Saturday.
The newspaper quoted close to the president that Trump begins his day at 5.30 am watching CNN, which he strongly criticizes.
Trump then goes on to watch the Fox and Friends program on his favorite Fox News station and watch the same program as prime time programs.
Other presidential performances include Fox's top-time shows hosted by Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Janine Perrow.
The report contradicts Trump's remarks during his recent visit to Asia when he said: "Believe it or not ... I do not watch television much, even if I'm in Washington or New York."
"People who do not know me like to say I watch television - I mean those who rely on fake sources."
"You know fake journalists and false sources," he said.
"I do not have time to watch TV because he reads the papers and documents a lot," he said. "I spend more time reading than watching television."
