US President Donald Trump has defended his use of social media in a series of tweets,
following a row over comments he made about two MSNBC TV presenters.

"My use of social media is not presidential – it's modern day presidential," he tweeted on Saturday.

His tweets are condemned by Democrats and Republicans alike, despite the White House springing
to his defence.

Mr Trump's aides have previously expressed concern over his tweets.

But the president said on Saturday that social media gave him the opportunity to connect directly to
the public, bypassing the mainstream media, whose content Mr Trump regularly labels as "fake
news".

"The FAKE & FRAUDULENT NEWS MEDIA is working hard to convince Republicans and others I
should not use social media," he tweeted, adding: "But remember, I won the 2016 election with
interviews, speeches and social media."

Mr Trump also stepped up his attack on CNN after the US news network retracted an article alleging
that one of the president's aides was under investigation by Congress.

"I am extremely pleased to see that @CNN has finally been exposed as #FakeNews and garbage
journalism. It's about time!"

The story that caused the upset, which was later removed from the website following an internal
investigation, resulted in the resignations of three CNN journalists: Thomas Frank, investigative unit
editor and Pulitzer Prize winner Eric Lictblau and Lex Harris, who oversaw the investigations unit.

Considere a análise linguística elaborada para o texto 1 e assinale a alternativa INCORRETA.

## Alternativas

- **A)** Em: His tweets are condemned by Democrats and Republicans alike (…), empregou-se a voz
 passiva (Present tense), indicando certa formalidade do discurso.
- **B)** Nos trechos: 'whose content Mr Trump regularly labels as “fake news”.‟ e 'resulted in the
 resignations of three CNN journalists (…)‟, as palavras sublinhadas são falsas cognatas.
- **C)** No último parágrafo, deu-se preferência ao uso dos verbos no Simple Past, sendo que o verbo
 empregado na frase 'who oversaw the investigations unit.' é irregular.
- **D)** Em: "I am extremely pleased to see that @CNN has finally been exposed as #FakeNews and
 garbage journalism.(…)", os termos sublinhados são advérbios de tempo e modo,
 respectivamente. ✔ **correta**
- **E)** A expressão 'It's about time!', empregada no final do penúltimo parágrafo, pode ser traduzida,
 em português, por 'Já estava na hora!'.

## Resposta correta
