President Donald Trump addresses reporters.

• President Donald Trump continues to go after media outlets that aren't Fox News.
• He hasn't appeared on a television network that isn't Fox in months.

President Donald Trump resumed his rhetorical jabs at television networks - except Fox News - on Monday.

"We should have a contest as to which of the Networks, plus CNN and not including Fox, is the most dishonest, corrupt and/or distorted in its political coverage of your favorite President (me). They are all bad. Winner to receive the FAKE NEWS TROPHY!" Trump wrote.

Trump has continued to complain about his coverage on different cable networks and in different media outlets except Fox News in recent days.

In a separate tweet on Monday, he mocked the ratings for the MSNBC show "Morning Joe," and in tweets on Sunday, he complained about CNN International. Last week, he also boasted that he turned down an interview with Time Magazine, lamenting that the organization would not tell him if he would be the magazine's person of the year.

Though he was once a ubiquitous presence on cable television, Trump hasn't appeared in an interview on a television network that isn't Fox News since May.
