Video of reporter calling Trump 'felon' removed

TAIPEI — A state-funded English-language broadcaster in Taiwan removed a video of one of its journalists calling United States President-elect Donald Trump a 'convicted felon,' after the island's government said the incident was 'very serious.'

Taiwan has publicly congratulated Trump on his victory, joining other governments around the world in trying to get onside with the next US administration.
