We all know that egotistical Donald Trump firmly believes that he deserves every honor — let’s not forget that it wasn’t too long ago that the president was asked who Time Magazine’s Person of The Year award should go to — and he said himself despite how badly his presidency was going at that moment.

That’s why what Times Square has just announced for its New Year’s Eve celebration is going to make the president furious. As Time Magazine’s Persons of the Year ended up being journalists that were killed or targeted for their courageous work and dedication to the truth, Times Square has followed in these footsteps and announced that it will honor press freedom as we close out 2018.

In its New Year’s Eve celebration, Times Square will honor a number of journalists, many of whom have criticized Trump. The special guests that were called out in the announcement are:

  • Karen Attiah, Washington Post global opinions editor
  • Rebecca Blumenstein, New York Times deputy managing editor
  • Alisyn Camerota, CNN New Day anchor
  • Vladimir Duthiers, CBS News correspondent and CBSN anchor
  • Edward Feisenthal, Time Magazine editor-in-chief
  • Lester Holt, NBC Nightly News and Dateline NBC anchor
  • Matt Murray, Wall Street Journal editor-in-chief
  • Martha Raddatz, ABC News chief global affairs correspondent and This Week co-anchor
  • Maria Ressa, Rappler CEO and executive editor
  • Jon Scott, Fox News Fox Report Weekend anchor
  • Karen Toulon, Bloomberg senior editor
  • Joel Simon, executive director of the Committee to Protect Journalists

This is a big f*ck you to Trump, and he’ll likely be extremely offended by this move even though we all know he didn’t deserve this honor anyway.
