Trump is \u2062currently leading in every state poll and\u200d has a \u200dsignificant margin over \u2063his\u200b nearest\u2064 GOP\u200d competitor. However, networks like CNN and MSNBC are unable\u2064 to cover\u2064 him. \u2063Their \u2063news coverage is heavily biased and relies on viewers \u2062who\u2064 see Trump \u200bas a villain. Allowing Trump to speak is something they refuse \u200cto do.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ignoring Trump Is Bad TV \u2062and Won&#8217;t Save Biden<\/h2>\n<p>This creates\u200b a dilemma \u200cfor them that they haven&#8217;t even begun to\u2062 understand, let alone solve. Covering an election without showing\u200d the remarks\u2064 of the likely GOP nominee and the candidate leading\u2064 in head-to-head\u200c matchups is going to\u200d make for \u2062boring television. Ignoring\u2062 Trump not\u2064 only harms their ratings but\u200d also fails to\u2063 help Joe Biden. Biden is rarely allowed to speak to the\u2062 press and scripted speeches do him little good.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-e0f3fdc19149355244c75d443a110b06 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-6\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-e0f3fdc19149355244c75d443a110b06\"><\/div>\n<p>By not showing Trump, the media shield their viewers from what \u200cthey consider to\u2062 be his lies.\u200d They protect \u200cthem\u2062 from his statements\u2064 about\u2062 illegal immigrants, Biden&#8217;s border crisis,\u2064 and the 2020\u200c election.

Democrats will undoubtedly claim that defeating Trump is crucial \u200bfor democracy. However, treating \u200bthe 2024\u2064 race as \u2063a\u200d shadow game \u2063contradicts their \u200cpurpose\u200b of energizing their base and warning of impending doom.<\/p>\n<p>After Trump&#8217;s victory in 2016, many\u2064 leftists believed that \u2063the media had betrayed them. They\u200b thought that giving \u2062Trump\u2063 extensive coverage had helped the Republicans win an election that \u2064was supposed to\u2063 be in Hillary Clinton&#8217;s favor. However, \u200dthey failed to understand\u2064 that Trump&#8217;s appeal went beyond the media&#8217;s coverage.

Not showing Trump speak\u2064 may spare the sensibilities of CNN \u2064and\u200c MSNBC viewers, but it will have minimal impact.\u200b The more they try \u200dto silence Trump, the \u2062more undecided voters will be curious about \u200cwhat he has to say.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CNN Can&#8217;t Help \u2064but Keep Trump Off the Air<\/h2>\n<p>Despite this, CNN&#8217;s left-wing staff believes\u200b that allowing viewers to hear Trump could help him win.

A CNN\u200d news staff conference\u2064 call\u2064 held after the Iowa caucuses revealed their desire to \u2064keep Trump off-air.
