Finally a guy with guts ...gives it to the lying press .... Can't wait until he takes out the lying New York Times!
It's interesting to note how naive reporters are about charity collections... that once someone pledges it can take up to a full year to collect... and the guys that pledged are bluechip companies!
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump attacked the media as "dishonest" Tuesday, calling one journalist a "sleaze" and another a "loser" for their coverage of the charity event he ran when he skipped a Fox News debate in January.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump attacked the media as "dishonest" Tuesday, calling one journalist a "sleaze" and another a "loser" for their coverage of the charity event he ran when he skipped a Fox News debate in January.
After controversy reigned over Fox's bias, Trump instead ran an event for veterans' charities which he stated recently raised some $5.6 million in one night.
But after several members of the press, including ABC News's Tom Llamas and editor of the Weekly Standard Bill Kristol, questioned that figure, Trump went on the defensive.
"The press should be ashamed," he said. "I have never received such bad publicity for doing such a good job."
"I think the political press is among the most dishonest people that I have ever met," he added.
Trump then pointed at Llamas, saying "you're a sleaze because you know the facts and you know the facts well"; he also called Kristol a "loser."
