Nets Skip Trump Executive Order to Protect Free Speech on College Campuses

By Nicholas Fondacaro | March 22, 2019 12:08 AM EDT

In a highly anticipated ceremony on Thursday, President Trump signed an executive order directing the government to take action in protecting free speech on college campuses. It wasn’t something that enthused the liberal broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and, NBC) so they omitted it from their evening broadcasts. Instead, they all cheered on New Zealand for their swift movement in banning so-called “assault weapons.” So, that’s two rights the liberal media seemingly don’t like.

In sharp contrast, Fox News and chief White House correspondent John Roberts covered the story early on during Special Report.

“At a ceremony in the East Room this afternoon, President Trump took a step he hopes will ensure all voices are heard on college campuses across the nation,” Roberts reported. “In an executive order, the President directed his cabinet agencies to tie federal grants for education and research to more aggressive enforcement of the First Amendment.”

If we don't report it... you can't decide.
