"SNIP....

MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace wouldn’t air Trump’s remarks on immigration from the White House until she preemptively fact-checked them.

Wallace explained on her show Deadline: White House, “Donald Trump is making remarks in the Roosevelt room this hour. Five days before the midterm elections and a day after admitting to ABC news that he tells the truth only when he can. Today’s remarks come after weeks of engaging in a deliberate strategy of stoking fear about the humanitarian crisis in Central America. A slow-moving caravan of asylum seekers and migrants. They also come after — come days after a war of words with house speaker Paul Ryan about birthright citizenship. Donald Trump’s divisive speech has been cited as contributing to the climate in which the synagogue shooter targeted Jewish Americans and the pipe bomber targeted trump’s critics. Because he’s used immigration in blatantly political ways and in an abundance of caution, we’ve decided to monitor those remarks, fact-check them against his rhetoric and record on immigration and bring you the important news from them.”

.....SNIP"

1. KR!!

[LovingA2andMI]

2. This is reason we MUST turn her Nicolle's Show At 4pm ET....

As she is a Rock-Star and one of the best hires by MSNBC in years. Thank you, Nicolle.

[TeamPooka]

3. This should be SOP for every Trump speech from now on for all networks.

His remarks need to be curated and annotated for US citizens

[SallyHemmings]

4. More should follow her lead...

[Wounded Bear]

5. Good on her...

[gratuitous]

6. Good for Wallace

Rest of the media: Is that so hard to do? The rationale for ignoring Trump's rantings live is right there. He lies, he admits he lies, and he tells the truth only if he's cornered like a rat. If the White House cuts off your access, what have you lost access to? A pack of lies? Oh, boo hoo, you might have to give up airing lies in the morning. That would be a blow!

[blue neen]

7. Thank you, Nicolle.

We need more like you calling out the bullshit.

[Blue_true]

16. Like Bill Maher said.

The only people swinging at that MAGA bullshit with bare knuckles are former republicans like Nicole Wallace, Steve Schmitt, Anna Navarror, George Will, Jenifer Rubin, ect. They aren't fucking around, they are trying to draw blood with every punch.

[blue neen]

22. Steve Schmitt has some righteous rants.

They all need to keep it up!

[Blue_true]

27. I just hope that once we are through Trumpism.

That people like Schmidt, Wallace, Rubin, Will, Navarro, et al, realize, and admit how they help give Trumpism life and pledge to treat democrats as fellow Americans and patriots that they just have some important, but minor political difference with.

[blue neen]

28. Yep.

Agreed.

[badhair77]

29. Wallace has mentioned this on her show already.

If I can find her quote I’ll post it.

[ffr]

8. THIS!

No more tRump said.

No more watch tRumps speech.

Cuck Fonservatives!

[Hekate]

9. Like I posted earlier: Nicolle is awakened!

12. Did not see that. Thanks for getting the story out.

[Hekate]

23. I've been very pleased with her, on the whole. Many months ago she said "Lies! Lies! Lies!" ...

...as she tossed away tweets from Trump and press conference statements from Sarah. Said she wasn't going to read them out loud any more.

So, okay, sometimes she has to do it -- but the lady is very selective, and she fact-checks. And today she really broke free and led the way.

Tons of posters today griped about CNN -- I think they should all take a little time and write to CNN pointing out that if Nicolle can do it, so can they. Plus a second note to MSNBC giving heartfelt thanks for what Nicolle just did.

[applegrove]

24. I was impressed with her today. I don't get MSNBC in canada so i just

see the odd clip of her on the internet. You saw it as a great story at the same time as politicususa.

[barbtries]

32. i've been watching don lemon

on youtube in the mornings. i think he's pretty good. jump to about 28 minutes for a really good segment with a trumpster being schooled.

[ancianita]

10. I'm glad. It's just reactive reporting. O'Donnell refuses to air his rallies. Control the framing.

[rurallib]

11. Every time trump gets coverage is free publicity

cut off his fucking lifeline.
Good Job, Ms. Wallace!

[thegoose]

19. Precisely

And that's all Ancient Orange lives for. Such a filthy piece of shit!

[eppur_se_muova]

13. A few days ago, she remarked "we have a policy of not airing Trump's speeches here at 4 o'clock"

Thought that was interesting, that she actually said it was an explicit policy. I think she takes after RM on this -- Rachel says "don't pay attention to what they say, pay attention to what they do" and she doesn't air 45's remarks except as read from transcripts.

[Charlotte Little]

14. Bravo

Hopefully, others will follow suit.

[trof]

15. She is my favorite repub. By far.

[elmac]

17. they gave him twice as much airtime during the 16 election

and now they are finally having an attack of news responsibility? Too little, too late. Everything he does now is for reelection, he should be ignored and put in the comic section of the newspaper.

[Ilsa]

18. She's been (not) doing this for

a few weeks now, I think. She refuses to give his propaganda any air time.

[kentuck]

20. One of my favorites!

She's smart!

[Tarheel_Dem]

21. Good for Nicolle. I wish the rest of media would follow suit. n/t

[wss2001]

25. No live Trump!!!

Networks commonly have a several second delay so swearing or inappropriate language can be edited. Why can’t we put Trump on delay and run chirons underneath that refute his lies?

[onecaliberal]

26. Glad Wallace is refusing to air the hate porn trump insists on publicly displaying to inspire fear

among the stupid.

[badhair77]

30. She refuses to show Sarah Sanders, also, because of the lies.

[Bradshaw3]

31. The rest of the MSM need sto follow her lead

Also, when it comes to Sarah Huckster. Enough with giving platofrms to the known liars.
