MEDIA OFFENDER OF THE WEEK
| OFFENDER: NBC News’ Yamiche Alcindor |
| CLAIM: In the press briefing room, Alcindor asked Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, “What protocols are in place when there’s unsubstantiated information being put out for the world and world leaders?” She was referring to the video played by President Trump with the South African president addressing the genocide of White farmers in his country. FACT: Karoline responded, “What’s unsubstantiated about the video? The video shows crosses that represent the dead bodies of people who were racially persecuted by their government. In fact, The Associated Press, of all places, has a picture of that very monument in the caption from The Associated Press is ‘Each cross marks a white farmer who has been killed in a farm murder.’” Watch the clip here: |
