Both CNN and MSNBC carried the entirety of the speech by DeSantis, after openly refusing to carry the speech by Trump, even though Trump won a landslide with 51% against DeSantis’ 21%.

It’s madness. CNN and MSNBC are flagrantly embracing their role as propagandists.

Now, both CNN and MSNBC are carrying the full speech by Nikki Haley. They are engaged in false advertising. They aren’t doing news reporting, they’re doing state propaganda.

CNN and MSNBC wouldn’t air Trump’s victory speech and instead are running this, pure, cliched propaganda.

CNN and MSNBC news executives made a terrible decision tonight. They embraced propaganda over journalism.

Neither CNN, MSNBC, nor Fox aired the concession speech by @VivekGRamaswamy despite, or perhaps because, the fact that he endorsed Trump, which is bigger news than anything either DeSantis or Haley said.

Trump won every county in Iowa thus CNN and MSNBC must protect their fragile viewers from his utterances.

We are witnessing an elite panic. It’s as primitive and superstitious as the one that declared some women to be witches capable of casting spells.
