Donald Trump has slammed Verizon's decision to drop right-wing network One America News (OAN).
Verizon confirmed last week that it would stop carrying OAN on its Fios television service from July 31.
The move means OAN, a staunchly pro-Trump channel that has been accused of promoting the former president's baseless claims about the 2020 election, is left with almost no television providers.
Trump took to his Truth Social platform, launched after he was banned from Twitter and other sites after the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, early on Sunday to decry Verizon's decision as "purely political."
"One America News (OAN) is AMAZING, with great ratings and a REALLY loyal following," he wrote.
"Despite it being so good, VERIZON, for purely political reasons, will be terminating OAN at the end of this month. Isn't this 'stuff' supposed to be illegal?"
