[See NewsBusters for more.] Over 100 people gathered in McHenry, North Dakota on Monday to mourn the loss of teenager Cayler Ellingson who was murdered because his alleged killer thought he was a “Republican extremist.” But you wouldn’t know about the left-wing political violence if you watched ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC or CNN. These networks and cable channels have buried what would be a huge story, if only the man who hit the teen was a conservative, a Republican, or a pro-life activist.
In contrast to these liberal outlets, Fox News and Newsmax have covered all the details of the story. On Tuesday morning, Fox and Friends co-host Carley Shimkus explained: “More than 100 loved ones come together to remember the life of 18-year-old Cayler Ellingson who was laid to rest after he was run over by an SUV last week.”
