MSNBC’s Alicia Menendez began her program on a “personal note” Saturday as she declared that she’d stay clear of covering the indictment of her father, Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.).
“Last week, a grand jury indicted U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez. This past week, dozens of members of his own party have demanded his resignation,” said the MSNBC anchor on her “American Voices” program. “I have been watching, along with all of you, as a citizen and also as his daughter. I will not be reporting on the legal case.”
She then pointed to her own network’s reporting as she spoke just over one week after her father was indicted on corruption charges.
“That said, my colleagues across MSNBC and NBC News, they have aggressively covered the story and they’ll continue to do so, as they should,” the anchor added.
Alicia Menendez’s father and his current wife, Nadine Menendez, were among those indicted in an alleged bribery scheme. Her father has been accused of accepting gifts in exchange for using his position in politics to aid the Egyptian government.
Bob Menendez has since pleaded not guilty, and an attorney for Nadine Menendez has said she also denies the allegations. High-profile Democrats have called for the senator, who stepped down from his role as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, to resign.

What does Alicia Menendez know, and when did she know it? Highly unlikely she doesn’t know what scumbags her parents are. Maybe she is equally so, she does work for MSNBC.
That’s mighty white of her.
Now that her Daddy may lose his Senate seat, she’ll probably lose her MSNBC Anchor seat, too.

I am sure Alicia would be as fair and balance as when she covers any story about conservatives. /s
Sounds like Menendez’s little anchor baby princess doesn’t want daddy to go to jail and then be deported.
Gold Bar Bob’s only positive is he’s anti-communist.
I heard she was a ‘seamstress’ before getting the MSNBC gig.
