Flashback: CNN and MSNBC’s Enthusiastic Coverage of Russian-Sponsored Anti-Trump Rally
News Busters ^ | 02/19/2018 | Rich Noyes

Posted on 02/19/2018 12:30:08 PM PST by Kid Shelleen

One of the revelations in Friday’s indictment handed down by Special Counsel Robert Mueller was that alleged Russian attempts to sow disunity in 2016 included the organization of both pro- and anti-Trump rallies in New York City on the Saturday after Election Day. A check of their November 12 coverage showed both CNN and MSNBC gave enthusiastic coverage to the Russian-organized anti-Trump rally that day, with live reports every hour. Correspondents celebrated the idea that it was “a love rally,” and repeated the marchers’ anti-Trump mantras, such as: “We reject the President-elect.”

The stench from the abject corruption of the MSM is nauseating.

And Michael Moore came and said Trump stood with Putin.

It has become very clear to even those of limited mental capacity, either through surviving a serious misfortune or by birth, that the so-called “news media” of America has been hijacked by those who wish to destroy America.

All the while, those that are rubbing their hands in glee, will be the first ones eliminated by those that they are seeking to place in power.

My only question is: “When will we read about ‘potshots, of any form or media, taken at Hillary’?”

According to Mueller’s indictment:

“In or around November 2016, Defendants and their co-conspirators organized a rally in New York through one ORGANIZATION-controlled group designed to “show your support for President-Elect Donald Trump,” held on or about November 12, 2016. At the same time, Defendants and their co-conspirators, through another ORGANIZATION-controlled group, organized a rally in New York called “Trump is NOT my President” held on or about November 12, 2016.”

Wow, the lying fake new media got "unwittingly" duped by the Russians too? Who woulda' thunk?

And then they "colluded" with Russians by enthusiastically covering and siding with them at the anti-Trump event.

How much more does this Mueller guy need to indict the Leftist media for Russian collusion?

....as I say seriously but with my tongue planted firmly in my rhetorical/sarcastical cheek.

The MSM are such hypocrites that they don’t even notice their hypocrisy.

So Hillary Colluded with the Russians. The FBI Colluded with the Russians. The DOJ Colluded with the Russians and the Media Colluded with the Russians. We have proof of all this.

But we are still investigating Trump’s collusions with the Russians?

LMAO! Keep it up, Douche Wagons.

Careful there. "Unwittingly" gives them some credit by being stupid. How do you think the media finds out about these rallies and mobilizes resources to cover them. It isn't like they catch wind of it or review government issued permits on a daily basis. No, a "source" calls them and gives them details (time, place, numbers, speakers, etc.). These sources are usually "known" folks or organizations. They don't act on stories from tips from just anybody.

Remember, The media knew Fusion GPS and Steele and the leakers. They knew the people that were asking them to help promote and cover the anti-Trump protests. I don't think it's a stretch to think they may have known, or at least should have known, who was supporting the riots, er I mean protests.

Of course!!

If Hillary had conspired with the Russians to get herself elected the media would be treating the Russians like the most patriotic, America loving, best friends in the world!

Well said Tenacious1.

The corrupt media folks who have been hounding our president from the beginning are well connected with extreme left individuals and they are at their beck and call when they need media coverage.

If CNN or MSNBC said it was raining I would wait for a second opinion from an organization that was trustworthy because they are devoid of honestly.

From election day 2016 until now, MSNBC & CNN have been non-stop Russian election meddling & major TDS.

Since last week’s tragedy, now I noticed they’ve turned that corner and focused 100% of their attention on ANTI-GUN-OWNERSHIP and the mis-characterization of law-abiding gun-owers.

State-sponsored marxist propaganda networks at their finest.

I submit to you that Hillary conspired with the Russians to ensure she won the nomination. When you think about it, without those super delegates, Hillary would never have went over the top prior to the convention. I think we need to open an investigation into who paid those super delegates.
