Donald Trump has threatened to shut down NBC and other American networks, saying that they peddle fake news.

"With all of the Fake News coming out of NBC and the Networks, at what point is it appropriate to challenge their License? Bad for country!" Mr Trump wrote in a tweet.

Mr Trump's tweet came in response to a story written by NBC, which said that Mr Trump had sought to increase America's nuclear arsenal tenfold after taking a look at a briefing slide that showed stead reduction of the US nuclear arsenal since the 1960s. The story cited three officials who were reportedly in the room when Mr Trump made the comments.

    I'm thinking 0.1, or maybe as high as 0.25%. Totally underrepresented.

    Also Trump and the Republicans are in power and we know that affirmative action is their favorite policy.

    I lived with it for a long time. And I've had great relationships with lots of people. I have great African-American friendships. I have just amazing relationships. And so many positive things have happened. So I'm fine with it. I don’t like what the late Justice Scalia said, no, I don’t like what he said. I heard him, I was like, "Let me read it again," because I actually read it in print, and I’m going, I read a lot of stuff, and I’m going, "Woah!" What he said was very tough to the African-American community.
