Media FAIL on Trump Mocking Disabled Reporter

  • 8 years ago
See how the media failed when reporting on story about Trump mimicking a reporter's ‪Disability‬. They failed to report a KEY point and it was a pattern throughout multiple TV news outlets. Yes Trump mocked New York Times reporter Serge Kovaleski but that's not the whole story.

As the mass media talked about Trump mocking or appearing to mock NYT reporter Serge Kovaleski's diabilty, nearly all of the media failed to report that what he was mocking the reporter about wasn't true. So the story wasn't just that Trump mocked a reporter with a disability my mimicking him, (I explain the full story in the video)

As for the claim that Mr. Kovaleski was trying to pull away from his past reporting, he said, “Nothing could be further from the truth.”

When Mr. Trump referenced the story recently, Mr. Kovaleski did not back away from his story, but merely said his reporting did not support Mr. Trump's claim that thousands were celebrating."

And for that Trump lashes out at the man, mocks his disability and lies about what he said. And when criticized Trump claims, "I have no idea who this reporter, Serge Kovalski is, what he looks like or his level of intelligence." Yet that isn't true either: http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/reporter-donald-trump-mocked-spent-day-mogul-1989-article-1.2448381
