After NBC’s Today skipped on Friday morning the frightening news that Russia had criminalized reporting basic facts about their war on Ukraine, NBC Nightly News gave the story 55 seconds of muted coverage hours later, possibly due to the fact that they were still reporting from Moscow as other western networks ceased reporting there and not risk prison sentences of up to 15 years.
Meanwhile, ABC’s World News Tonight revealed their team had stopped reporting in Moscow due to the law and the CBS Evening News was the lone broadcast network newscast to highlight the horrifying video of a Sky News team facing a barrage of repeated gunfire in Kyiv from Russian soldiers (despite identifying themselves as journalists).
