(152,114 posts)CBS News, both national and local, covered the marches, both the one in DC and the ones in the local areas of affiliate station. Here in Minnesota, WCCO had good coverage of the march in the Twin Cities, and a Google News search turns up coverage in many cities by the local media.
NBC and ABC also covered the marches on their regular news programs.
So, it is incorrect to imply that "No US media covered the women's march."
You didn't see the coverage, apparently, but maybe you weren't watching for it. MSNBC and CNN aren't really hard news outlets. Instead, they broadcast commentary 24/7. Did you watch every program on those cable networks? I doubt it very much.
If you actually watch news on television, you'll find it on the three alphabet networks, morning, evening, and late night. All of those news programs covered the marches to some degree. Local affiliates covered the marches where they are, but the national network news programs covered the DC march specifically.
You don't like ABC, CBS and NBC? Well, a huge majority of people who watch any news at all get their news on those broadcast networks. Each of them overwhelmingly beats the cable news networks in viewership. Together, they simply swamp the ratings, compared to cable news programming.
Perhaps you are not watching the news, but only commentary on the news.
