NBC has delayed airing a new documentary about Trump’s child-separation policy, described by MSNBC’s Chris Hayes as “absolutely urgent,” until December, despite its importance for public interest. The reason behind the delay appears to be concerns that airing it earlier could hurt Trump’s feelings, thereby making him unlikely to do an MSNBC debate. This decision has been criticized as prioritizing Trump’s sensitivities over informing the public on a significant and painful policy issue.

    Apparently, there is no worse election interference than giving the people accurate portrayals of the beliefs and behaviors of the candidates.

      Every day it seems like these media companies might only care about their own profits, and the richest people who own the most shares… That are among the 5% of Americans who get tax breaks with Trump’s upcoming policies.

      I hope someday they all get thrust back into poverty and the world shits on them as they have shit on the world.
