Instead of focusing on the latest developments in Wisconsin concerning the Republican presidential primary, ABC’s World News Tonight used 25 seconds to eagerly promote Donald Trump supporter/former adviser Roger Stone’s threat to expose the hotel room numbers and locations of delegates to the Republican National Convention that won’t be supporting the billionaire candidate.
The lead story from anchor David Muir and Republican campaign correspondent Tom Llamas lasted for three minutes and 43 seconds, but that portion of time dithering away on Stone’s direct threat occurred one day after Llamas wasted 55 seconds reminding viewers of the unsubstantiated rumors about Cruz’s marriage being perpetuated by the National Enquirer.
