Washington
: Lashing out at American media,Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump termed CNN as -"Clinton News Network-" and called the New York Times -"dishonest-" for allegedly favouring his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
-"You look at CNN, it's called the Clinton news network. All day long, Trump, Trump -- all day long, CNN, Trump, Trump, such a bad guy,-" Trump yesterday said at a town hall in Columbus, Ohio.
Targeting the New York Times, Trump said, -"the New York Times is really, really dishonest, and it's failing. I don't think they'll be in business more than two or three years. Look at their numbers. They're failing-".The Republican presidential nominee alleged these newspapers write stories favouring his rival Hillary Clinton. -"Crooked Hillary they write beautifully about,-" he alleged.
Trump accused CNN of -"inaccurate information-", and said he won't be doing any of their shows until they -"straighten up-".
-"I think their ratings are going to go down really sharply now. They've been asking me to go on for months. I won't do their shows.When people finally realise that I'm not doing their shows they stop watching. That's what happens,-" Trump said.
Trump alleged media outlets, except Fox are very tough on him.
-"Fox has at least been fair. So at some point, at some point we're just gonna keep barrelling through,-" he said.
Referring to the recent decision of his campaign to revoke the press credentials of the Washington Post, Trump said the newspaper -"got a little bit better lately-".
The billionaire from New York who claims to have 22.5 million followers on Twitter and Facebook, said that he would continue to use Twitter.
-"You know who says don't use Twitter Your enemies. Why wouldn't I use it Why wouldn't I -- if I have all these millions of people, and it's a great way to get a message out.
-"So when they write falsely, or say something totally false on the Today Show, or Good Morning America, I've put out a tweet. And you'll see all over television -- we have breaking news,-" he said.
-"I may be tweeting from bed. OK It's true. It's instantaneous. If I put out a beautiful, long, perfectly scripted press release like I did yesterday nobody puts it out. If I put out a 140-character tweet they go crazy. They break into every story. So you got to use it,-" Trump added.
