The White House blasted two liberal news networks for repeatedly cutting away from President Trump’s daily coronavirus task force briefing, calling their actions “disgraceful.” “Pretty disgraceful that @CNN and @MSNBC have both cut away from this @WhiteHouse briefing with @realDonaldTrump and @Mike_Pence during a global pandemic. Thank you to @FoxNews for keeping Americans informed. #COVID19,” White House spokesman Judd Deere wrote on Twitter.A CNN spokesman responded to Deere’s tweet with a statement saying, “If the White House wants to ask for time on the network, they should make an official request. Otherwise we will make our own editorial decisions,” The Hill reported.

CNN and MSNBC are deliberately making themselves even less relevant to viewers. "I'm going to watch CNN so I won't have to watch President Trump." Does that make any sense at all?

The viewing public will also make those editorial decisions and continue to NOT watch CNN or MSNBC as reflected in their ratings.

Chances are that they broadcast Joe Biden's rambling, bumbling, stumbling incoherent rant right through to its pathetic conclusion. It will feel great when we hold the funeral for both the leftist MSM networks and the democrat party all at the same time.

When their small cadre of viewers aren't informed and end up with the virus, it won't be anyones fault but their own. It can be named the CNNMSNBC awards instead of the Darwin awards. Losing those viewers won't be a great loss, since anyone stupid enough to watch CNN and MSNBC, are too stupid to worry about.

It is one thing to think you are elite when you are and another to think so when you are at best effortlessly mediocre...CNN and the entire MSM fall into that category...

They panic when anything makes President Trump look good and they can't risk America seeing him in action.

Sorry for the 2nd post, but what a perfect excuse to drop CNN and MSNBC from any White House briefings, and to stop taking any questions from their snarky reporters asking 'gotcha' questions, since they don't want to televise the President anyway.

In CNN's case, the airports are near bare so "what difference does it make"

President Trump should use his emergency powers under the Defense Production Act if necessary to force the television networks to fully cover the official Presidential White House briefings relating to the corona virus national emergency.

Right. The average person who must tune to those channels undoubtedly is too ignorant to follow the CDC and administration protection instructions anyway...

Pence and Trump must be providing too much factual information and are successfully calming everyone's nerves. The media just cannot have that, it destroys their narrative. Pelosi, Schumer and the Media should be horsewhipped and hung out to dry.

I hope the WH will ban MSM reporters and journalists from attending any press conference.

I watched the whole thing today. I thought the gaggle of reporters asked some great questions and Trump answered everyone professionally and gave informative answers. It was great without the alphabet channels being there and making a scene with all of their Gotcha questions.

I didn't notice because those channels are never ever clicked upon. I don't even know what channels they use on cable network, much less care. Why waste my time listening to their constant lies.

They can't stand it that Trump and his team are competent and calm. Sanders is more to their liking. A man who never did anything but have a kid he would not support.
