Sinclair "must-run" segment on family separation policy and child detention attacks the media

Sinclair's Boris Epshteyn: Media have “seized on this issue to make it seem as if those who are tough on immigration are somehow monsters”

Blog ››› 7 hours 26 min ago ››› PAM VOGEL

Audiences across the country are watching a segment on their local news telling them that liberals in media had overblown reports of children separated from their parents and detained in cages near the border -- all thanks to Sinclair Broadcast Group.

BORIS EPSHTEYN: Our immigration system is undeniably broken and the discourse around this topic is toxic. A perfect illustration of these facts is the recent firestorm surrounding President Trump’s decision to enforce a “zero tolerance” policy and prosecute all adults illegally crossing our borders. Many members of the media and opponents of the president have seized on this issue to make it seem as if those who are tough on immigration are somehow monsters. Let’s be honest: While some of the concern is real, a lot of it is politically driven by the liberals in politics and the media.

Now Sinclair will pump out the fascist line 24/7 in every local news market!

The right wing POS that owns the National Enquirer has just bought out virtually every magazine you see in a grocery store to pump out GOP lies and racism as well!

Freedom and democracy WILL NOT STAND against all this fascist propaganda 24/7/365!

The pedofile and she got kicked out. His name was Jeffrey Epstein not Boris my mistake.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5866937/Trump-hold-rally-state-LOST-fires-supporters-Minnesota.html

Billionaire Epstein pleaded guilty in June 2008 to soliciting prostitution from a 14-year-old girl. He served 13 months in prison

So, how is Trump connected to Epstein? A number of A-list names from entertainment and other industries were linked to Epstein at the time, including the businessman-turned-president. In 2016, a woman filed a lawsuit against Trump alleging that he sexually assaulted her at Epstein's notorious “sex parties” in 1994 when she was a 13-year-old.
The woman used the name Katie Johnson to file the first complaint against the POTUS and Epstein on April 26, 2016 in California federal court. Later on, she amended her complaint in a second filing in October of the same year, in New York federal court, claiming she was subjected to rape, criminal sexual acts, assault, battery and false imprisonment.
