MSNBC, CNN Refuse to Air Donald Trump’s Victory Speech in Iowa but Air Haley and DeSantis Speeches
Breitbart ^ | 01/16/2024 | KRISTINA WONG

Posted on 01/16/2024 9:56:10 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

MSNBC and CNN refused to air former President Donald Trump’s Republican Iowa caucus victory speech Monday evening, while airing fellow candidates’ speeches.

MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow announced on-air that Trump had just began giving his speech but that the network decided not to air it because it did not want to knowingly broadcast “untrue things.”

She said:

At this point in the evening, the projected winner of the Iowa caucuses has just started giving his victory speech. We will keep an eye on that as it happens. We will let you know if there’s any news made in that speech if there’s anything noteworthy, something substantive and important. The reason I’m saying this is, of course, there is a reason that we and other news organizations have generally stopped giving an unfiltered Live platform to remarks by former President Trump and is not out of spite it is not a decision that we relish it is a decision that we regularly revisit and honestly earnestly it is not an easy decision. But there is a cost to us as a news organization, knowingly broadcasting untrue things as a fundamental truth of our business and who we are and so his remarks tonight will not air here live we will monitor them and let you know about any news that he makes.

They actually stated something like “There is a reason why we will no longer air unfiltered comments made by Trump” and wouldn’t explain what those ‘reasons’ were

We all know the reasons- because the left are feckless lapdogs of the left!

Mr. Maddow said, with a straight face, that MSNBC had a responsibility to filter the untruths of Trump.

MSNBC is a broadcast BUILT on lies and untruths that ONLY benefit Liberals.

...says Rachel Maddow, the woke lesbian with the man’s haircut.

That’s okay. They are irrelevant on substantive matters that concern MAGA voters. Nothing but bias and invective. They are in for a big surprise - maybe one that can’t be solved convincingly by DNC, MSM and Administration cheating.

The BIAS was obvious all night, sadly got stuck with nothing but CNN as my option last night, and it was atrocious.

The clear and present attempt to push Haley and disparage Trump at every opportunity was non stop.

It is clear the establishment/globalist/uniparty is doing everything in their power to astroturf Haley...

And if she comes out of NH with ANYTHING they can remotely SPIN as her doing well, they will push the narrative or her being the Trump Killer non stop until SC votes, trying to create the reality they want.

Hell even last night with a 3rd place showing, they tried at every opportunity as trying to spin it as a win for her... She outperformed... etc etc etc.

They are trying to John McCain her so badly, its disgusting.

It’s just as well they refused Trump. They are the top two Fake News Networks. PMSNBC and Cnn. I don’t think Trump should associate with those lyin’ libsters. Not good for his credibility.

They have exposed themselves for 6 years. Hatred does that to you.

This is what real fascism looks like. When the media is in lockstep with a particular political ideology and acts as gatekeeper for social trends, fads, panics, what forms of bigotry and against who are acceptable, how you should power your car, and what political candidates will get face-time, you have classic textbook state fascism.

This crap from the liberal networks that pushed Hunter's laptop was Russian disinformation and that COVID didn't come from a Chinese Lab?

The MSM has zero credibility.

MSNBC AND CNN - - EFFING LIARS
