Rachel Maddow is slammed running 'state TV' show after telling viewers MSNBC won't show Trump's Iowa victory speech because 'we cannot knowingly broadcast untrue things'

Rachel Maddow was one of the most vocal proponents of the claim Trump colluded with Russia

She said the network was continuing its policy of not showing Trump's speeches live

'It is not an easy decision, but there is a cost to us as a news organization of knowingly broadcasting untrue things,' Maddow added

MSNBC host Rachel Maddow was criticized for her announcement that the liberal network would refuse to cover Donald Trump's Iowa victory speech because she believed it would contain falsehoods.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

It would seem she isn't aware there is a difference between facts and opinions.  If she were broadcasting from Russia, her statement would be acceptable. :tongue2:

Why don’t she let her three  viewers and fact checkers decide what the false hoods are, and not take it upon herself to do that?
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
