Live Interviews of Trump Condemned [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 9 June 2024 | John Semmens

Political director of ABC News George Stephanopoulos characterized live TV interviews of former President Donald Trump as "journalistic malpractice. You are allowing Trump's words to flow directly to the TV viewer. There is no opportunity to selectively edit the content in order to ensure that the correct message is conveyed."

"We are within a few months of an election that could overturn of our hard won victory over Trump in the 2020 election," the former Clinton apologist pointed out. "It is essential that we control the narrative. We can't do that if viewers can see and hear Trump for themselves without us providing the proper context."

"We imagine that we can craft 'gotcha' questions that will make Trump look like a fool, but the guy is a wild card who could easily spoil what we're trying to accomplish," Stephanopoulos warned. "Remember, the majority of the people who watch TV are not college educated. They don't have the same kind of doctrinal purity that we see in college students taught by the Marxist professors at our elite universities. They won't know that everything Trump says is a lie. So, for the love of God, we've got to insist on taped interviews."

Trump responded to Stephanopoulos' comments, calling them "conclusive proof that ABC and the others who mimic the same line are purveyors of fake news. Live is best because it is unfiltered and untainted by leftist manipulation. Media hacks like Stephanopoulos are propagandists for the Democrats. Covering up their policy disasters and slandering anyone who calls attention to those disasters. As each day passes more and more Americans become aware of the reality that the Democrats are destroying our great country. If we can have an honest election--something that the Democrats are working hard to prevent--voters will choose the path to a more prosperous and freer future that our MAGA movement is working to restore to our country."

Just another elitist lefty saying the quiet part out loud.

And as for the 2020 "victory" being "hard won", my response is hard won, my aunt Fannie.

OH NOEZ!

Pravda doesn’t want anyone speaking to the people without having to go through the censorship and propaganda gatekeepers!

This free speech will not stand!!!

And who gets to decide what the “correct” message is? You, George? The Democrats? Ridiculous!!! These lefties tell us exactly what they believe and a lot of folks just won’t believe them.
