Two major cable TV news channels cut away from President Trump’s event Friday with families of people killed by illegal immigrants, switching to coverage of illegal immigrant families complaining about treatment at the border.
CNN and MSNBC pivoted to the family separation issue even as parents on stage with Mr. Trump said their plight was ignored by the news media.
“The mainstream media does not let you know what is really happening,” said Mary Ann Mendoza, who lost her son, Mesa, Arizona, Police Sgt. Brandon Mendoza, in 2014 following a vehicular accident with an illegal alien allegedly driving drunk at three times the legal limit.
When CNN cut away from the event, the network’s midday host Brooke Baldwin questioned why the parents were complaining about the news media’s lack of interest in their stories.
CNN then went to a live shot from outside a Texas detention facility for illegal immigrant children.
The chyron read: “Thousands of kids in limbo as Trump’s order sparks confusion.”

“Comcast is corrupt.”
Starve the beast (Comcast). I had Comcast triple-play and the cost kept going up from the $110/mo intro price to $207/mo, the last straw. They are the only game in town for internet so I dropped tv and telephone and downgraded to 15mb/s cable at $49.95 per month. Added Youtube TV for $40/month (need a Roku box or equivalent) it has all the channels we need including the locals (love it!) and we’re now paying $90/mo instead of $207. Don’t miss the land-line at all, the only people calling us on the land-line for the last few years were telemarketers. It is so quiet now in the evenings.
So all fifty CNN viewers will never learn the truth.
I will certainly help to spread that far and wide.
Make your weekend project, people!
Comcast is corrupt.
Diane Feinstein and her husband (Richard Blum) are (or were as of a few years ago) the majority shareholders in Comcast. (Thanks to commissions to Blum for selling US Govt R/E - decommissioned military bases and post offices.)
They’re propaganda plain and simple.
“””””These are not news outlets. They are leftist propaganda organs.””””””
True dat. I remember many years ago when CNN actually had reporters around the world and a variety of topics and news events.
Now it is 24/7 TRUMP SUCKS.
Enjoy the ride scumbags.
The Marines are going to straighten you right out.
It’s simple. The left HATES Americans. Which is why they want to replace us.

“So, surprise, CNN and MSNBC are engaged in a conspiracy to cover up the murder of Americans by the illegal invaders.”
Different invaders but the same story as Europe.
Thanks!
I think the bias is so over the top it has reached the point where the relentless barrage of media attacks against Trump are starting to have the opposite effect of generating sympathy and support for him.
One hundred percent negativity and a steady state of media hysteria is simply not what MOST Americans want to hear. It becomes predictable, tiresome and banal programming. Not exactly a formula for media success.
Right arm. When the news is constantly TRUMP SUCKS nobody pays it any attention.
They will be forced to cover the red wave in november. Should be fun.
These liberal stations will do to Trump what they did to Rush. Near total blackout.
There is a 70 billion dollar offer on the table for the purchase of Fox after the big media corporate merger recently aporoved. We could lose a voice of truth that we have become accustomed to.
Why would they cut away?
Isn’t that their big story of the month?
They broadcasted Russia nonsense for more than a year, then suddenly stopped reporting on it, when the IG report was released. I wonder what they are going to make up next?
Too positive.
Surprise surprise.
I have an economical digital package with Verizon — reliable fiber. Paying about $115/month for a digital land line, 75/75 Mbs, and minimal TV. The SmartTVs can access a wide variety of OTT content.
Thankfully, I’m not dealing directly with Comcast.
Well, that describes a wider web of corruption.
Never heard a peep from the Left regarding Feinstein’s influential news media holdings.
Imagine the Left’s continuous, violent noise if Murdoch were a Senator.
