If a California elected official calls for gang violence against federal agents tasked with enforcing immigration law but it wasn’t reported on the legacy network newscasts, did it really happen?

OF COURSE: ABC Links Lander's Performative Arrest to Padilla’s Stunt

GASLIGHT: ABC’s Muir Oversells Driver Incident at ‘No Kings’ Protest

ABC Praises Rioters for ‘Self-Policing’ as NBC Admits Harm to Stores
Even though CBS’s lead newscasts were far and away the most out of control Tuesday night and Wednesday morning in siding with the illegal immigrant mobs in Los Angeles and attacking President Trump for a simple desire to restore law and order, their compatriots at ABC and NBC had plenty of their own hot takes.
