More in the cross-post on the MRC's NewsBusters blog.

In an interview with “Caitlyn” (formerly Bruce) Jenner for Wednesday’s NBC Today, news anchor Natalie Morales protrayed the reality TV star being a “staunch Republican” as controversial, but not Jenner’s transgender activism.

Morales explained that in the upcoming season of I Am Cait, Jenner “is seen embracing womanhood, developing strong friendships with and learning from other transgender women, who she calls her girl squad.” Then the reporter fretted: “Something that hasn't changed, Caitlyn is still a staunch Republican, which led to some heated exchanges during the group's bus travels across the country.”
