President-elect Donald Trump may be visiting with the New York Times after all.
Spokesman Hope Hicks told reporters gathered in Trump Tower on Tuesday morning that Trump was “going to the New York Times” later in the day.
The statement comes only hours after Trump tweeted that he would not be meeting with the newspaper.
He wrote on twitter that he canceled the meeting “with the failing @nytimes when the terms and conditions of the meeting were changed at the last moment. Not Nice.”
President-elect Donald Trump’s visit to The New York Times is to consist of a private meeting with the publisher followed by an on-the-record session with Times journalists.
Trump at first abruptly canceled the meeting, accusing the organization of changing the ground rules. The Times said Trump’s team actually tried to change the conditions by asking that the entire session be off the record.
But before long, both sides said the meeting was back on Tuesday.

Well looks like they’re really organized. Better fasten your seatbelts for the next 4 years.
Another MSMPL Fake News from AP. Seeing is believing. Trump might want to give them a dressing down like he did for other MSMPL Fake media (like CNN, NBC, etc.) yesterday.
To commenter no. 2: What is MSMPL?
