"Does it hurt?" Hannity asked.
"It does not hurt. The problem is that they are writing the story and it is not correct, "Trump replied.
"They like to focus on gossip and I would like to ... focus on substance, what we do, not just nonsense," Trump said.
In the past, Trump has already spoken of feeling ridiculed by mainstream media and her husband's political rivals. In October, she said in an interview with ABC News that feeling a victim of "bullying" led her to create the "Be Best" cyberbullying initiative.
Despite her criticism, the former said she will not refrain from promoting her goals and doing what she believes is right for the country.
"I do what I think is right," Trump told Hannity. "I know I will receive criticism from the public or the media, but I will do what is right and what I believe is good for the country and for the people."
