Trump falsely claims '96 percent of journalists' donated to his opponent

At a 'Make America Great Again' rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, President Trump claimed that negative media coverage was fueled by the fact that '96 percent of journalists who made donations in the last election gave them to our opponent.' In reality, only a small fraction of journalists donated to any presidential candidate, and none who covered the White House or national politics contributed to either campaign. The statement was used to undermine press credibility on the 100th day of his presidency.
