Non-stop advertising for Trump - make it stop

I am disgusted. Why is Lester Holt and NBC news in the can for Trump?

As just one example, Lester Holt airs Nikki Haley's fall-in-line statement of "what a disaster Biden has been" for the economy, with no counterpoint. Meanwhile the US economy is doing far better post-covid than virtually every other country.

And this morning (31 May) you play endlessly from Trump speech whining about the "radical left agenda"? Will you spend equal airtime on what a truly horrible person Trump is?

Stop the free ads for Trump! Did you learn nothing from the last 8 years?

NBC is getting to be as bad as Fox.

Get people riled up and fuck the facts.

(from my 'liberal' perspective)

I think ABC is worse. Nightly News with David Muir is sensationalized.
Lester Holt is balanced.

Yes a good counter point would be that high grocery prices are clouding the success of Biden's economy.
I still think NBC News & Lester Holt are on par with the PBS News Hour - giving the news without sensationalizing every topic.

This is why I do not watch the news at much.
