That evening, many accused Trump of impatiently throwing the food into the pond, instead of carefully spooning it out (shown below).
Shortly after, CNN reporter Veronica Rocha tweeted a clip showing Trump throwing the fish food into the pond, along with the message "President Trump feeds fish with PM Shinzo Abe in Japan, then pours the entire box of food into the koi pond" (shown below). Hours laters, CNN published an article by Rocha titled "Trump feeds fish, winds up pouring entire box of food into koi pond."[4]

The following day, The Guardian posted a video featuring a wider shot of the two men, clearly showing Shinzō Abe dumping the remaining contents of his food box first (shown below). That day, the video hit the #13 trending spot on YouTube. Meanwhile, the news site Mediaite[2] published an article titled "Fact Check: Twitter Lost it Over Trump's Fish Feed -- But Japan's PM Dumped Food First." Foxnews accused the anti-Trump media of making up a fake news story of overfeeding the koi fish with accusations of bias.[5] The South China Morning Post accused both leaders equally of being short on patience and of indeed overfeeding the Koi fish.[6]
