After ABC’s “World News Tonight” ran a package Thursday night in which Tom Llamas criticized Republican candidates Trump and Jeb Bush for their use of the term “anchor babies,” the real estate mogul took to Twitter to accuse ABC of “fraudulent” reporting.
.@TomLlamasABC cannot report the news truthfully. Why not apologize for your fraudulent story on World News Tonight.Gang members & criminals

.@WNTonight please correct your story tonight. The public is fed-up with bad reporting for the sake of sensationalizing something!

But whatever Trump’s feelings toward ABC News, by Saturday afternoon Politico was the worse offender.
.@politico covers me more inaccurately than any other media source, and that is saying something. They go out of their way to distort truth!

In a piece comparing Trump’s presidential run to that of four-time loser George Wallace, Politico’s Ben Schrekinger called into the question the number of supporters who attended the rally, citing media reports that estimated the number to be around 15-20,000, far below the expected turnout of 40,000.“It has just been confirmed by the City of Mobile, Alabama, that there were 30,000 people at last nights event, making it #1for pol season,” he wrote on Twitter, also thanking The Washington Post for their “accurate and very discriptive [sic] story.”
I had 15,000 people in Phoenix but @politico said "the rooms capacity is just over 2000." But said Bernie Sanders had 11,000 in same room.
