US President Donald Trump thanks Australian PM Malcolm Turnbull for 'truth' stuff.co.nz
US President identifies the culprit for the blow-up with Australian PM – fake news media. Later in the day, he told a meeting with US steelworkers nations were "really terribly taking advantage of us" and then pointed to Australia.
The Trump administration and Turnbull were concerned enough about damage to the Australia-US alliance that Australian Ambassador Joe Hockey was dispatched to the White House on Thursday (Friday NZT) to meet with Trump's chief of staff Reince Priebus and senior adviser Steve Bannon.
The furore erupted on Wednesday (Thursday NZT) when the Washington Post reported Trump abruptly ended the planned hour call after 25 minutes.
