CNN, MSNBC skip historic Senate vote confirming Amy Coney Barrett to Supreme Court
Fox News ^ | October 26 2020 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

Breaking news is becoming a rare occurrence in the coverage of the two liberal news networks, particularly on the night of Amy Coney Barrett's confirmation to the Supreme Court.

CNN and MSNBC chose not to air the historic vote in the Senate that confirmed Barrett as the 115th justice and only the fifth woman to the Supreme Court. The vote resulted in 52-48 with Maine Sen. Susan Collins as the sole Republican to join Democrats in opposition.

Both networks largely covered Barrett's confirmation through the prism of the coronavirus outbreak with CNN anchors shaming the Trump administration for hosting a celebration at the White House following the previous event commemorating Barrett's nomination, which has been widely referred to as a super-spreader based on the high number of attendees who were later diagnosed with the virus.

That’s always been an issue with cable news, too much talking heads, not enough actual ‘news.’ Sad.

This is incredible.

News networks do not cover the swearing in of a Supreme Court justice? How are they news networks?

They’re not. They’re propaganda. Orwellian.

wrt Barrett, they don’t want people to see her because they will like her.

I was shocked MSNBC did not cover the swearing-in ceremony, something that doesn’t happen very often and is historic.

They are not a news organization if they don’t cover the news.

Yeah, well it would kill them to report ‘real’ news. Real news is like a cross to a vampire to them.

They act as if, by not reporting it, people won’t know. Ignorant jerks throwing a temper tantrum.

It seems to me when CNN first started it was news 24/7. You could tune in almost any time and in 15 minutes get a quick overview of the “news” now it is just 24/7 opinions.

Right. It’s not just petty. They’re WITHHOLDING information from Americans in the hopes that it keeps votes away from Trump.

Straight up election interference.

You are correct.

The news has always been liberal but back then they tried to cover up their bias and pretend to be 'fair and balanced'.

They never really were, but they were not 'pravda' like they are today.
