[See NewsBusters for more.] Though the networks have been silent on Barack Obama's latest slam against Christians, writer Mark Steyn unloaded on the President, Wednesday. The commentator responded to Obama's critique of "less than loving Christians" by highlighting the murder of Kenyan Christians: "This is a guy who's happy to draw general lessons when a black youth gets killed in Ferguson, Missouri. That apparently has wide application for black people all over America. But 148 black corpses has no general application!"  An emotional Steyn railed, "Well, Mr. President, #blacklivesmatter when they're Christian, too!" ABC, NBC and CBS on Tuesday and Wednesday skipped any mention of Obama's remarks at an Easter prayer breakfast: "I do reflect on the fact that as a Christian, I am supposed to love. And I have to say that sometimes, when I listen to less than loving expressions by Christians, I get concerned." That silence continued on Thursday's morning shows.
