ABC deletes Trump’s March for Life reference in its online transcript
The Washington Times ^ | 01/27/2017 | Kelly Riddell

Posted on 01/28/2017 2:22:45 PM PST by ForYourChildren

In an interview with ABC News that aired earlier this week, President Donald Trump complained to anchor David Muir about the mainstream media’s lack of coverage for the March of Life.

When Mr. Muir asked if Mr. Trump could hear the protesters from the progressive Women’s March on Washington from the White House, Mr. Trump responded, saying:

“No, I couldn’t hear them. The crowds were large, but you will have a large crowd on Friday, too, which is mostly pro-life people. You’re going to have a lot of people coming on Friday. And I will say this, and I didn’t realize this. But I was told. You will have a very large crowd of people. I don’t know as large or larger. Some people said it will be larger. Pro-life people and they say the press doesn’t cover them.”

Mr. Trump boldly referenced the March of Life, which his Vice President Mike Pence will attend, and correctly said it received little to no air-time on the nightly news shows. A report by the Media Research Center released this week found the major television networks gave the Women’s March 129 times more coverage than last year’s March for Life.

Yet, surprisingly (or maybe not) the entire exchange about the two marches was edited out of ABC’s official transcript of the interview.

I had to work Wednesday evening, so I watched the interview on demand last night. I heard the President say this and, considering how he changed the subject on Muir, the comment really stands out.

Did ABC actually think no one would notice the omission from the transcript? Two reasons not to trust the MSM — their dishonesty and their stupidity.

Like PROUD LIBERAL DEMOCRAT Pat Caddell said, the mainstream media is the enemy of the American people.

ABC was just using a time-honored journalistic practice.

Soviet Censorship of Naval Commissar

Photo of Nikolai Yezhov (Naval Commissar) and Stalin walking alongside the Moscow Canal. After Nikolai Yezhov fell from power, he was arrested, shot, and his image removed by the censors.

“.. so I watched the interview on demand last night. I heard the President say this and, considering how he changed the subject on Muir, the comment really stands out.”

Yes, that was totally my impression also. So when I saw this article it just blew me away. I went to the ABC online transcript, and sure enough, that exchange is not there.

I see the same good vs evil battle fought century after century through the ages.

Nothing anyone says or does is going to stop them from continuing with their blatant lies and deliberate omissions until God smashes them to smitherines. President Trump is His man, and may God bless him in his endeavor.

Tensions and strife are deliberately being fueled by Satan. My sense is the culmination will be epic. Onward Christian Soldiers.

No interviews unless he approves of the editing.

Trump should preface his next answer to an abc reporter by a request to the next question from an abc reporter to report entire transcripts...
