MSNBC, ABC, NBC completely avoid Barbara Boxer assault-robbery, CBS offers less than 7 seconds of coverage
Fox News
The liberal networks offered little to no coverage of the assault and robbery of former Democratic California Sen. Barbara Boxer as it's become the latest example of the media's efforts to downplay the growing violence that has plagued cities across the country.
While CNN broke its blackout briefly addressing the incident on its poorly-watched morning program "New Day," MSNBC continued the blackout throughout Tuesday according to Grabien transcripts, focusing much of its coverage on the Jan. 6 committee hearing. Perhaps the most puzzling element of MSNBC's omitted coverage of the assault was the fact that Boxer was a semi-frequent guest of the liberal cable news network, appearing on-air as recently as this past Saturday to discuss the Jan. 6 committee.More Related News
