CBS Evening News praises Gen. Milley's treachery with his alleged promise to aid China in combat if the U.S. would strike under Trump. They also celebrated him going around the chain of command and subverting the president's authority with the nuke codes citing his delusions.
On NBC Nightly News, Andrea Mitchell essentially made the argument that Milley was right to commit treason and promise aid to China. Despite the fact Milley's delusions had no merit, she argued it really looked like Trump was going to start a war with China.
Over on ABC, their coverage mostly consisted of chief Washington correspondent Jon Karl reading excerpts of the book. He did note that Milley was not in the chain of command but was instructing orders to only listen to his orders and not the president's.
And as he was wrapping up, Karl reported that Trump had spoken out on the accusations and had suggested that if they were true, then Milley was guilty of actual "treason." Karl so noted that Milley had not responded to the story.
Teaming with treachery: @CBSNews, @NBCNews fully back Gen. Milley’s act of TREASON against the U.S., promised to warn China newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicho…
