It was from 5 PM to 6 PM, their supposed news time -- i.e., "America's News HQ."
Their coverage MAINLY consisted of the bombing in Manchester and Muslim terrorists in general, with one interviewee blaming tolerance toward violent Muslims on "political correctness." Reported attacks against Christians around the world are also shown on the bottom news ticker.
They also touched upon efforts to repeal Obamacare and the CBO score, tax reform, Trump not confirming the Paris Climate Accords, the stabbings in Portland, Gregg Allman's death, Brzezinski's death, Jim Bunning's death, Trump's "home run" overseas, the 2018 elections, the killing of a police special agent in Virginia, Memorial Day, the use of DNA to identify killed soldiers from the past (white families were interviewed) and a segment on healthy nutrition.
DIFFERENT WORLD! It's understandable that many white evangelical Christians would like their coverage because it's mostly targeted at them, at least the ones who deem themselves to be under constant attack by non-Christians.
The prescription drug commercials were familiar.
You're welcome for my hour-long sacrifice!

(14,858 posts)... it was "explained" by someone from the "Washington Free Beacon" as a standard meeting for a new administration and the story is more about liberals desperately trying to take down Trump.
They were conveying to their audience, "Nothing to see here, folks!"

(5,272 posts)They finally got to Kushner but brushed it off saying Kushner corrected his security form and the info coming out is all about trying to take down Trump although intelligence agencies say no evidence of any collusion and collusion isn't a crime anyway. Jared is willing to cooperate fully with any investigation. Much ado about nothing is their spin.
They mentioned the Kushner meetings, but not one word about Kushner trying to set up a back channel to communicate with Kremlin- the bombshell story the rest of media is talking about- so any Trumpster would still say 'there is no there there' and anti-Trump concerns are unfounded.

(14,858 posts)Trump's huge margin of victory among that group, despite his various non-Christian behaviors, isn't too surprising to me now.
