the craven Lester Holt and cowardly NBC News shamelessly and deliberately mislead & misdirect their few remaining viewers,” actor Rob Schneider said.
“See how this works everyone? Trump almost gets shot AGAIN and the press connects it to the fact Haitians are eating people’s pets, and Trump bothered to notice. Lester Holt is saying Trump deserved to die. That’s what this is,” right-wing activist Charlie Kirk said.
What did Lester holt say?
Holt linked the assassination attempt with the Springfield rumors that Haitian immigrants were eating people’s pets. Both Trump and JD Vance spoke about the unsubstantiated claims. “Today’s apparent assassination attempt comes amid increasingly fierce rhetoric on the campaign trail. Mr Trump, his running mate JD Vance continue to make baseless claims about Haitian immigrants” in Springfield, Ohio, resulting in bomb threats,” Lester said as the news then shifted its focus to Springfield. Several institutions have received bomb threats targeted at Haitians.
The claim that Haitian migrants were earing cats and dogs were factchecked and it was found out that it was only based on heresy. A Facebook post of a woman was the source of the rumor and the woman heard if from her neighbor who also had no first-hand knowledge about it.
JD Vance did not back off on his claim and continued to hammer home the suffering of the people of Springfield. Appearing on a CNN, JD Vance said, “If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do. Because you guys are completely letting Kamala Harris coast,” Vance said which was seen as an unwitting admission that he spread fake news.
