WASHINGTON Nike Air Force 1 Shoes , Sept. 15 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday urged sports network ESPN to apologize after one of its anchors labeled him as "a white supremacist."

"ESPN is paying a really big price for its politics (and bad programming)," Trump said in a tweet.

"People are dumping it in record numbers," he continued. "Apologize for untruth."

Trump's attacks on ESPN came after SportsCenter host Jemele Hill tweeted Monday that "Trump is a white supremacist who has largely surrounded himself with other white supremacists."

In a statement late Wednesday, ESPN said Hill had apologized to the network for her remarks and it had accepted the apology.

"Jemele has a right to her personal opinions, but not to publicly share them on a platform that implies that she was in any way speaking on behalf of ESPN," the U.S.-based network said.

It also stressed Hill's comments "do not represent the position of ESPN."

White House press secretary Sarah Huckbee Sanders said "ESPN has been hypocritical Nike Air Force 1 Wheat ," when she was asked about the matter in a press conference on Friday.

"That's one of the more outrageous comments that anyone could make and certainly something I think is a fireable offence by ESPN," Sanders commented.

"They should hold anchors to a fair and consistent standard," she said, noting that the network once suspended an anchor over a political statement.

Hill's remarks on Twitter marked the latest fallout from Trump's ambiguous position on violent clashes triggered by a white supremacist rally last month in Charlottesville, Virginia, which led to the death of an anti-racism protester and injuries of dozens of others.

The National Association of Black Journalists said Wednesday that it supports "Hill's First Amendment rights on all matters of discussion Nike Air Force 1 Flyknit , within and outside the world's of sports, as they do not impinge on her duties as host and commentator."

In a tweet Friday morning, the American Civil Liberties Union stated "the president and his staff should not be using the enormous power of their platform to bully journalists or chill dissent."

BUCHAREST, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- Romanian President Klaus Iohannis appointed Social Democrat nominee, European lawmaker Viorica Dancila Nike Air Force 1 High , as prime minister on Wednesday and handed her a mandate to form a new government.

Dancila will become the first woman prime minister in the history of the Eastern European country.

Iohannis made the decision after consultations earlier Wednesday with parliamentary parties when main opposition parties had neither concrete proposals for the prime minister's position, nor a political understanding between them.

"Having weighed all arguments, taking into account the concrete situation in Parliament, I have decided to give the Social Democratic Party (PSD) one more chance," said the president, stressing that now the Social Democrats must show a strong performance Nike Air Force 1 Low , as "Romanians have great expectations, I have great expectations as well."

The president called on those involved in forming the government to get moving so that the entire procedure can be completed by Feb. 1.

Under the constitution, Dancila will seek a vote of confidence from Parliament regarding her governing program and complete list of the government within 10 days of her designation.

PSD leader Liviu Dragnea stated after the designation that the president chose stability by appointing Dancila as Prime Minister, "despite the pressure of the opposition parties."

"We thank him for this, and we really appreciate this very much," he said in a press statement.

Dancila Nike Air Force 1 , 54, became a member of the PSD in 1996. In 2014, she was elected as deputy in the European Parliament for a second term.

Before entering politics, she was an engineer with the then National Oil Company Petrom SA, and prior to that, a teacher at a secondary school.

Dancila will become the third head of government of the Social Democrats which won the parliamentary elections at the end of 2016.

Her predecessor Mihai Tudose Cheap Air Force 1 , being recently in disagreement with party chairman Liviu Dragnea, was forced to resign after the PSD leadership decided to withdraw its political support for him late Monday.

Tudose took over as prime minister last June, from Sorin Grindeanu who lost power in a no-confidence vote brought by his own party also due to a conflict with party leader Dragnea.
