[See NewsBusters for more.] Both ABC and NBC on Thursday night and Friday morning skipped rabid leftist George Soros’s ranting in Davos that Donald Trump is a “threat to the world” and close to a “mafia state.” Only CBS — and for a combined 29 seconds — bothered to report on the influential billionaire’s latest comments. On Thursday’s CBS Evening News, correspondent Margaret Brennan reported on the President's trip to the economic forum in Switzerland. She explained, “Not all business leaders are receptive to President Trump’s message. Tonight, legendary investor and well-known liberal philanthropist, George Soros called Mr. Trump a threat to the world and said U.S. institutions are the only thing preventing him from turning the country into a mafia state.”
