President Trump made history by becoming the first sitting president to address the March for Life rally in person in Washington, D.C. on Friday. But if you were watching MSNBC, you would not have known.

MSNBC chose to not air Trump's speech live and instead focused on the ongoing Senate impeachment trial. When the network came back from a commercial break, they cut to air impeachment manager Rep. Adam Schiff's (D-CA) press conference at the Capitol building.

"Now, unlike in the House where the President could play in the courts for years, that’s not an option for the President’s team here and it gives no refuge for people who want to hide behind executive privilege to hide the truth coming out," Schiff said. "We have a very capable justice sitting in that Senate chamber, empowered by the Senate rules, to decide issues of evidence and privilege."

Fox News aired the entire speech live, with CNN partially covering his appearance.

"We are here for a very simple reason, to defend the right of every child born and unborn to fulfill their god-given potential... And today as President of the United States, I am truly proud to stand with you," Trump stated at the rally.

He doesn’t get to decide issues of evidence and privilege, he is merely the master of ceremonies.

Okay. Since I NEVER tune in to that network that shall remain UNNAMED, I really don’t care. If nobody payed even passing attention to them, how long would they still be around?

Why in Gods name would I even consider watching anything on a broadcast channel when I have alternative ways, like the Internet to do so???????

If you feed the monkey they just keep coming back. No matter where you go advertising pays the bills and viewership denied is like starving them

Choose for yourself, but I avoid all network TV to the highest degree that I can

Of course others make their choice for themselves

Choose, but do so wisely

Sic Semper Tyrranis!

I’ll bet they’re trying to figure out a way to avoid showing the State of the Union even as we speak.

Only the brain dead watch (and believe) the “news” (their only source of information). How pathetic they are.

So are Schumer, Pelosi and Nadler.

C-SPAN is your best bet for any of these special events, and that’s where we enjoyed it this morning.

Tell me that these vile MSM outlets are nothing more than DNC propaganda pushers.

Since the MSM has decided to be PR firms for the Democrats the IRS should treat them as such.

That would not surprise me one bit, but then I don’t watch PMSNBC anyway and FOX News will show it anyway and that is the channel I watch

When Trump started speaking on the Fox News live broadcast, I briefly switched over to CNN. They were not covering the speech either.

It would be a wonder if PMSNBC, after they are tried, convicted, and sentenced for giving aid and comfort to the enemy, will even cover their own public hangings.
