Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump, during an appearance on Bill O’Reilly’s show Wednesday, offered up a bit of media criticism for the Fox News host.

“Honestly, I think I get better press from CNN than I do Fox, Bill,” Mr. Trump said. “I don’t know why. I don’t know why. But I think I get covered better. I think I get covered better. I think I get covered better on CNN than I do on Fox.”

Mr. O’Reilly went on to tell Mr. Trump that he’s “too thin-skinned.”

“I don’t mind bad things about me if it’s true. I can handle that,” Mr. Trump said. “But when people say untrue things, I don’t like it.”

“I don’t think I’m thin-skinned, no — I like to have the truth told about me,” Mr. Trump said. “And you know what? If I do something wrong, I know when it’s wrong, and if somebody goes after me, including you, I don’t mind it at all.”

“But when I didn’t do something wrong and they make it up, and they make things up, that I don’t like, Bill,” he said.
