Earlier this month, Trump boasted that he would hold "THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR."

On Wednesday, Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders had no answers at the daily briefing as to when or how the awards would be held, only stating that there would be an announcement later on.

People anxiously watched Twitter for any news, just as Trump would have wanted, considering he often runs his presidency like a reality TV show. But when the announcement came at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday, it brought down the related page, which was hosted on the GOP's website.

However, using a web archive, we were able to grab some screenshots of the awards, which called out the New York Times, CNN andTime among others. Fox News also reported the same list.

The real kicker on the list is number 11.
