On Monday, the major English and Spanish network ignored on their evening newscasts the decision by the Republican National Committee (RNC) to officially strip NBC News of its chance to host the February 26 Republican presidential debate that was soon after awarded to CNN (while keeping previous partners Telemundo and National Review).
This, of course, included NBC Nightly News, which made no allusion to the RNC vote to remove NBC as the network tasked with holding the last debate before Super Tuesday on March 1st. This comes despite the network having repeatedly acknowledged the party’s warning that this could happen following the disastrous CNBC debate on October 28.
