Purged! Morning Joe Drops Ted Cruz from Vegas Debate Image
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/15/2015 4:33:37 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Ted Cruz: MSNBC's modern-day version of Nikolai Yezhov! Yezhov was the head of Stalin's secret police who fell into disfavor and was executed during a purge. A photo of him standing next to Stalin was famously airbrushed to remove his image.

And so we come to today's Morning Joe, which displayed an image of tonight's Vegas debate stage. Photos of all the candidates appear at their assigned slots. With one exception. Ted Cruz is nowhere to be found! Simple mistake . . . or diabolical left-wing media plot to purge the #2 Republican contender? The truth is out there!

Cruz is the man the media and GOP fears.

Cruz has put the stench of fear on the MSM, but to the conservative voter loyal to true conservative principles and values he carries the sweet odor of victory.

It is beyond obvious the MSM has consistently practiced a moratorium on Cruz, one need only refer to the Sunday talk shows to see that, he may have appeared once or twice since announcing his candidacy where every other candidate has appeared multiple times on multiple different Sunday shows regardless of their standing in Polls.

“Morning Joe Drops Ted Cruz”

I dropped Morning Joe and MSNBC about a decade ago.

Let them stay in history. Who needs to get pink-misted from the present?

At this stage, the debate should be among those who have at least 10% polling. Trump, Carson, Cruz, and Rubio.
