BY AIDA CHAVEZ - 06/12/17 10:08 AM EDT
Defense Secretary James Mattis has been turning down regular requests by White House aides to appear on "Fox & Friends," the New York Times reported Monday.
Mattis has reportedly been asked weekly to give an interview Fox News's morning show, which strongly backs President Trump.
Trump has publicly praised "Fox & Friends" repeatedly, mostly recently thanking the show in a tweet for its "great reporting" last week after fired FBI Director James Comeys testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee.
