In a stunning scene in the middle of the night, news organizations rebuked President Donald Trump after he falsely said on live television that he had won reelection even as votes were still being counted.
With reporters and supporters gathered at the White House at 2:20 a.m. Eastern, the president said it was “a major fraud on our nation” that he hadn’t been declared the winner. “As far as I’m concerned, we already have won this,” he said.
The words were barely out of his mouth before television anchors rushed to refute him.
CBS News’ Norah O’Donnell said Trump was “castrating the facts” by “falsely claiming that he has won the election and disenfranchising millions of voters whose ballots have not been counted.”
“Donald Trump is losing right now both in the popular vote and the electoral vote and there are many states left to be called,” ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos said.
Said NBC News’ Savannah Guthrie, “The fact of the matter is we don’t know who won the election.” Guthrie had interrupted Trump’s speech to tell viewers that several of Trump’s statements were not true.
The president’s address, after he was ushered to a podium to the sound of “Hail to the Chief,” received criticism in what are normally friendlier outlets.
“This is an extremely flammable situation and the president just threw a match into it,” said Fox News Channel’s Chris Wallace.
His Fox colleague, former George W. Bush administration aide Dana Perino, said, “he just went a step too far.” Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro tweeted that it was “deeply irresponsible” for Trump to claim victory.
The president’s team was angry at Fox News Channel for striking out ahead of other news organizations in declaring that Biden had defeated Trump in the battleground state of Arizona.

I have switched to FOX BUSINESS!!!
FOX was showing the Philly Vote Fraud Manufacturing Plant all day yesterday.
Normalization effort complete.
Gee, Wally, that’s not like RINOs and The Fake News Media.
Same here. fox news is dead to me
They should not be called “news” organizations. They are propaganda machines.
I think I want to switch to some official in each state being the one to “call the state for” instead of letting the noose organizations do it.
I’m happy to see newsmax as a viable option to fox as I’m cutting the cord next week. Only kept cable to get through election. The other streaming news has been less than desirable...
Of coarse they do, on election night fox channel people were compassionate gentle when it came to speaking about the results from these states who refuse to send in their results like many others, ON ELECTION NIGHT! Not one of them mentioned that this may be a means to fudge the numbers this is election fraud! Fox is in thier can with the rest of the garbage
So?
Typical.
The media is part of the fraud we knew for weeks if not months the Democrats were going to try this and where were their investigations?
Where was our stout American media? Yes spewing democrat talking points? Why were votes stopped being counted Specially in three crucial states if it wasn’t an intent to commit fraud?
you people are pathetic
Why arent they investigating why those decisions are made and who made them?
Disenfranchising my butt. The fix was on and they were a part of it
These fucking “news” organizations. Who elected them to control us? Who are they? Just goddamn slime.
Prog “news” hookers falling into formation.
Drumbeat has begun.

Checking the Virgina state Gov’t 2020 election results one last time, I hit the rack around midnight. DJT was ahead in Virginia and up by 100k or so with 85% of precincts reporting.
At 0400 I woke up, checked the VA.GOV site and DJT was down 390k with the same 85% of precincts reporting.
Gerbbels or TASS would be more honest and factual than the ones we have. And more V.D. free also.
Trump is President. I am newsed out. Now I can see how the Covid thing was manna from heaven for the RATS. Don’t worry. They threw everything at this great man and he/us will prevail.
Anyway, this is what I'm projecting for the final count IF the election fraud is contained. All the toss up states I change to red because Trump is as of now leading in them including PA........
Oh my, a rebuke from the Asspress. These shitbags won’t have anyone reading their Democrat cheerleading once Trump is gone. They will be just another irrelevant Soviet news agency.
