For two consecutive days, the ABC and NBC evening news channels tried to ignore major warnings about rising energy costs in America.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) released a devastating report Oct. 13 showing that “households across the United States will spend more on energy this winter compared with the past several winters.” The reason is because of “higher energy prices and because we assume a slightly colder winter than last year in much of the United States,” noted the EIA. This is a huge price increase. The nearly half of U.S. households that primarily use natural gas for heating will pay an average of “$746, or 30% more than they spent last winter.” The five percent of households that primarily use propane will pay an average of $631, or a whopping 54 percent more than last winter. Average heating oil usage will cost four percent less than it did last winter. The average household that uses electricity to heat will be paying $1,268, six percentage more than the previous winter.
They are propaganda arms like the pro-President Joe Biden delinquents they are ABC World News TonightAnd NBC Nightly NewsThe bad news regarding energy prices was not covered by the Oct. 13 or 14 broadcasts.
CBS Evening NewsSurprisingly, at least covered the spiking prices in home heating on Oct. 12, even though it didn’t cover the EIA report released a day later. CBS also has a reputation of shielding Joe Biden against bad economic news in this year’s economy.
CBS Evening News October 12, broadcast.
But the massive energy price spikes isn’t the only major news that ABC World News Tonight NBC Nightly News ignor. In the face of Biden nuking the Keystone XL pipeline, which cost thousands of U.S. jobs, the networks ignored the administration approving construction of Russia’s Nord Stream 2 Pipeline across two days of coverage in July. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki claimed in May that “we’re hardly letting any country or other countries build Nord Stream 2.”
Conservatives under attack Contact ABC News (818-460-7477), CBS News (212-975-3247) and NBC News (212- 664-6192) and hold them to account for ignoring coverage of the government’s projection of massive energy price spikes this winter.
