Multiple networks rejected the White House’s request to show slides and graphics on screen alongside President Donald Trump’s frantic, but ultimately meaningless, primetime speech.
Trump’s communications team supplied a set of slides for major news networks to run alongside the president’s address as he desperately tried to convince Americans that the economy is in good shape on Wednesday night, sources told CNN.
However, CNN, ABC, CBS, and NBC all refused to display the slides of bar charts and line graphs on topics such as food prices and wages because the material did not clearly cite where the information was sourced from.
