First Lady Melania Trump apparently won the crowd over after being booed at Tuesday’s youth opioid summit, but outlets appeared to bury the news.
Melania spoke at the B’More Your Summit in Baltimore Tuesday to help show children the dangers of opioid abuse. The speech was part of her “Be Best†campaign, and the first lady was booed as she began to speak on stage, according to reports. The Washington Post noted in its article that she appeared to win over the crowd in the end, but no other outlet reported this.
The New York Times, CNN and NBC News were among the outlets that reported on Melania being booed, each framing the story around this rather than her response or what the summit was about. ABC News even linked and quoted WaPo’s article, but avoided mentioning that the crowd appeared swayed by her speech in the end.
