[See NewsBusters for more.] On the eve of the final withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, only ABC’s Good Morning America specifically mentioned that Joe Biden’s disaster will abandon at least 250 Americans in the country. CBS This Morning, for example, vaguely mentioned “some” would be left behind. However, on GMA, Cecilia Vega began with the “crisis in Afghanistan.” She told viewers: “The urgency to evacuate greater than ever with one day until the deadline to withdraw U.S. troops. At least 250 Americans still trying to get out as hundreds of Afghans crowd the gates of the airport.”
