US President Donald Trump has praised a Republican congressman who assaulted a journalist last year with a "body slam", referring to him as "my guy".
"Greg is smart," Mr Trump said of Montana Congressman Greg Gianforte, adding "By the way, never wrestle him".
"Any guy that can do a body slam... he's my guy," he said to cheers and laughter at a rally in Montana.
The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) and the Guardian newspaper have called on Mr Trump to apologise.
This latest praise from Mr Trump is unlikely to improve his relationship with the media, which he has previously labelled the "enemy of the people".
He said he had feared that the 2017 assault could have hindered Mr Gianforte's chances of winning the special congressional election that followed. Mr Trump told supporters: "I said wait a minute, I know Montana pretty well, I think it might help him - and it did".
After praising Mr Gianforte, Mr Trump also mimicked a person being thrown forcefully to the ground.
