1/x @FreeMikeWhite, a Navy Vet, has been held hostage by Iran for 537 days. One cable and hit one broadcast hit. It’s hard to say who has failed Mike more - the television media or the Administration Mike voted for... Plz help - gofundme.com/freemikewhitef… (con’t)
2/ @FreeMikeWhite ’s mom gave an interview to @NPR today. It’s worth listening to. (Con’t) wbur.org/hereandnow/202…
4/ On the broadcast side, only @CBSNews has lived up to its public interest obligation. Here is @roxanasaberi’s interview with @FreeMikeWhite’s mom, Joanne for @CBSThisMorning. (Con’t) cbsnews.com/news/mother-of…
5/ In fact, last weekend, Secretary Pompeo did all 4 Sunday shows last weekend and only @chucktodd asked him about the plight of the hostages (incl @FreeMikeWhite ) but let him get off the hook by claiming to “love” the White Family whom he’s never met nor spoken to. (Con’t)
6/ So yes, there is no question @realDonaldTrump admin is doing to the same thing to the @FreeMikeWhite family that he and I both complained the Obama admin did to. But this isn’t all Trump’s fault... Control rooms in NYC and DC have ignored this family just as much. (Con’t).
7/7 We owe the @FreeMikeWhite family better than this. I would like to thank my friend @GovRichardson and @RichardsonCNTR as well as @JamesFoleyFund, @MarkSZaidEsq and of course, @jonfranks for stepping up to help. We cannot leave this vet behind... #End gofundme.com/freemikewhitef…
