According to a report from the Media Research Center, network news coverage of deported alleged MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia has far outpaced coverage of Rachel Morin, the Maryland woman killed by an illegal migrant criminal.
…and the disparity in coverage is shocking.
From Media Research Center:
Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen’s shameless trip to El Salvador, to bring back illegal immigrant and accused MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia to his Maryland constituents, prompted the Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) networks to extend their exhaustive “mistakenly” deported “Maryland man” coverage.
From April 1 through the morning of April 23, ABC, CBS, NBC jammed their evening and morning shows with a total of 143 minutes, 24 seconds devoted to Abrego Garcia.
ABC spent the most time (52 minutes, 32 seconds) on Kilmar Abrego Garcia. CBS came in second with 49 minutes, 26 seconds. NBC aired 41 minutes, 45 seconds on the deported man’s case.
Over that same time period, another Maryland illegal immigration case — the trial and April 14 conviction of the murderer of Rachel Morin — was almost completely ignored by the networks.
So how much time did the networks devote to the Morin case?
A pathetic 12 seconds.
The networks spent 717 times more coverage on Abrego Garcia.
The Morin mention came during the April 16 NBC Nightly News.
You don’t hate the media mob enough.
