We regret to inform you all that the Regime Media is at it again. ABC News, in its capacity as the most consistently pro-Biden of the network evening newscasts, excised the most damaging part of a quote from the president on the recently-affirmed 1864 Arizona statute banning abortion in all instances except to save the life of the mother.
Watch as correspondent Rachel Scott closes out her report, with all the subtlety of a tank, from in front of a Planned Parenthood in Phoenix, Arizona:
RACHEL SCOTT: Today, the Biden campaign saying Donald Trump set out to overturn abortion rights in America, and he did. Insisting Trump owns the suffering and chaos happening right now. And when asked his message to the people of Arizona, a key campaign battleground, tonight, President Biden was blunt — Elect me.
WHIT JOHNSON: Rachel Scott with us now from Phoenix. And Rachel, as you noted there, Republican lawmakers tonight blocking Democrats’ efforts to repeal that 160-year-old abortion ban. So bottom line here, where do things stand right now in Arizona?
SCOTT: Whit, Arizona is in a state of limbo. The Supreme Court here in Arizona put that ruling on hold for 14 days. Democrats and Republicans were racing to try to repeal that law before it went into effect. Well, tonight, Republicans blocking those efforts. The Democratic governor Katie Hobbs calling their actions unconscionable, saying that the Republican majority had a chance to do the right thing, and tonight they failed. Whit.
JOHNSON: Rachel, thank you.
Except that this wasn’t ACTUALLY what Biden said- bluntly or otherwise. Leave it to the throne-sniffingest newscast to leave out the most damaging part of an absolutely brutal gaffe wherein Biden tells the world, in front of the Prime Minister of Japan, that he is in the 20th Century.
This is another one of those instances where Biden was in the clear but decides to take that one last question. And it bit him again. Once you see the actual quote in its full context, you can tell that it is not blunt at all- and to suggest otherwise is to traffic in regime propaganda.
Both CBS and NBC accurately reflected the gaffe in their reporting about the Arizona territorial law. Their reports, like this one, served the general purpose of advancing pro-abortion narrative and falsely framing former President Donald Trump’s criticism of the Arizona Supreme Court’s ruling as a flip-flop on abortion and inconsistent with the belief that abortion should be left to the states.
Only ABC made the choice to try to hide an easily findable gaffe within an A-block story on a deeply divisive topic. Why, you ask? In order to protect Biden. As usual.
