Only CBS Highlights Long History of Democratic Presidents Slamming Judges

[See NewsBusters for more.] ABC and NBC on Thursday worried that Donald Trump is "taking shots at one of the pillars of this country," judges. Of the three networks, only CBS This Morning bothered to explain that there is nothing unusual about a president fighting with the judiciary. Reporter Jan Crawford highlighted the long history of Democrats, including Franklin Roosevelt, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, of attacking judges. ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today skipped this point. Crawford explained, “President Obama berated conservative justices who were sitting right in front of him during the 2010 State of the Union address.” She added, “President Clinton suggested at one point he would ask a lower federal court judge to resign over one of his controversial decisions.”
