Blacking out the President's speech

NBC and ABC Blacked Out Trump’s Election Speech and Got a Threat Nobody Saw Coming

NBC and ABC blacked out President Trump's primetime election security address at nine o'clock Thursday night. NBC and ABC had already made their decision hours earlier. Both networks refused to air the speech on their broadcast channels.They chose regular entertainment programming over the President of the United States.

MS NOW, the network that employs former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki, carried the first fifteen minutes of the speech. Then it cut away right as Trump began describing the vulnerabilities in the voting system. CNN treated a national security briefing like a routine press conference.

Only Fox News carried the entire speech from start to finish. CBS at least tried, breaking into regular programming a few minutes late and cutting away before Trump finished. Even then, CBS surrounded the speech with fact-checking before and after, the kind of setup media critics call a "truth sandwich."

Translation: they couldn't let Americans hear the president without a lecture on both sides.

Networks spent a decade lecturing America about protecting democracy. Then they blacked out the president the moment his speech threatened their preferred narrative.

That's not journalism, that's a blackout ordered by people terrified of what the declassified documents actually show.

I just watch newsmax, Real Americas Voice, NTD, and SNC and now I do not like legacy lamestream media, they cannot be trusted. Their hate and TDS is sad to see today in news.

So networks are required to carry President's speeches now?

You know that NBC, CBS and ABC all declined to air Biden's major speech on September 1, 2022, and went with normal programming instead? And no one threatened anyone.

Requiring stations to air The Leader's speeches is something that happens in Russia or N. Korea or Uganda. You and your fellow MAGAs have completely forgotten what being an American is all about.

Most people will agree that with the extreme threats the world and America is exposed to right now, Americans will switch on their TV sets to watch the News and then hope to get a sense of how things are....Of what is going on. When the Deep State Networks chose not to broadcast Trump's speech at such a newsworthy moment, they effectively PROVED their purpose is PROPAGANDA, and that real news is not their primary objective. .....As to Dementia Joe-- Most Americans were aware that Joe did not know what was going on around him, and his nonsensical babbling on camera did nothing to suggest we could learn anything about what was really happening in the world from Joe. The surprising development was that all the "useful idiots" that voted for Joe, pretended that this man with dementia and the brains of a broccoli, was a good Democrat President, and they would rubber stamp any command out of his drooling mouth. Even now, many still defend his presidency, the most traitorous in the history of the United States--the first President to be elected by foreign interference and voter fraud, and to prosecute people that tried to shine the light on the criminal and treasonous behavior. Of course, this does give us a better definition of what a "Useful Idiot" actually is....so thanks for being a great visual of this, anon@4pm !!!
