Real Estate tycoon and media personality Donald Trump blasted the state of the media Monday, criticizing the coverage of stories like Benghazi and Donald Sterling.
In an appearance on Fox & Friends, Trump called the Huffington Post "pathetic" and blasted dishonest reporters, "especially political reporters," who, according to Trump, "want to protect anybody involved with respect to Benghazi."
As Politico noted in its article on Trump's tirade, Trump also criticized coverage of the racial comments made by Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling:
Trump also railed against the press for its coverage of his remarks last week about Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, who has been suspended for life by the NBA for his comments on race. Last week, while criticizing Sterling’s comments, Trump described V. Stiviano, the woman who taped her conversation with the Clippers owner, as “the girlfriend from hell.”
As the article notes, Trump's primary problem with the coverage was that his comments on Stiviano generated far more coverage than his criticism of Sterling.
