Trump: 'Biased' NBC News Didn't Credit Me for Job Creation

Donald Trump slammed NBC News Wednesday as "totally biased" for failing to mention that major U.S. corporations have been announcing they're creating new jobs "because of me."

He aired his grievances about the network's "fake news" on Twitter. 

Totally biased @NBCNews went out of its way to say that the big announcement from Ford, G.M., Lockheed & others that jobs are coming back...

to the U.S., but had nothing to do with TRUMP, is more FAKE NEWS. Ask top CEO's of those companies for real facts. Came back because of me!

Trump followed up with a quote from The Wall Street Journal's reporting on one such announcement, apparently in contrast to NBC's coverage.

"Bayer AG has pledged to add U.S. jobs and investments after meeting with President-elect Donald Trump, the latest in a string..." @WSJ

Trump then fired a shot at NBC's "Today" show, which he said has "little credibility."

No wonder the Today Show on biased @NBC is doing so badly compared to its glorious past. Little credibility!
