NBC Stoops To Using Kids In Propaganda Video Against Trump....
Here are 2 videos produced by NBC News that are nothing more than political ads that have children delivering scripted, anti-Trump screeds. No objectivity, no alternative point of view and certainly not “journalism”.
Quote:NBC News handpicked anti-Trump tykes for two propaganda videos to make it appear that every child in American thinks Pres. Trump is an ignorant racist and threat to the country.
Not one child in either “Dear Mr. President: kids Talk Trump” or “Dear Mr. President: Letters from the American Children” says he actually supports Trump’s efforts to keep America safe from terrorism or stop the influx of illegal aliens.
Both videos open with smarmy, false compliments to give the illusion that these kids haven’t been indoctrinated by leftist teachers and liberal media…but, then, both launch into unrelenting snide rebukes couched in innocent-kid-speak.
The kids accuse Trump of racism and violence against blacks:
“Most of my family is black. I’m afraid that you’re gonna hurt some of us blacks.”
“You are here, attempting to white-wash America.”
“I don’t like your definition of American, because I don’t seem to fit within it.”
These adolescent activists really, really don’t want a border wall or travel ban on state-sponsors of terror, because it’s not “nice” and “fair”:
“Not letting immigrants into America is really not nice, so please let them in.”
“It’s not fair for refugees.”
“Just because I’m Mexican, doesn’t mean you can build a wall around the country.”
“Please don’t build a wall, and don’t let people have guns.”
“P.S. – Please don’t build a wall around Mexico.”
“P.P.S. – Please, please don’t stop the refugees from coming.”
“You’re going to separate me away from the rest of my family, and I really don’t what that because I love them too much.”
“Some of my friends are really scared about you building a wall, and the travel ban, because a lot of their families live in different places.”
Both videos ask kids, “What do you want to tell President Trump?” and invite them to “Share your message with us” – but, it appears NBC deliberately cherry-picked the children to create propaganda, not to reflect what America’s kids really think.

Reminds me of the time NBC tried to prove Blacks were discriminated against in retail by sending 3 or 4 11-12 year old Black kids into a jewelry store. Not surprisingly, they were asked to leave. Duh!

NBC should have to register as a Political Action Committee.
They have funded a pov with their own money.
They are no longer objective.

Wow. They really still just don't get it.
NBC looks like it's now gone full-tard MSLSD style.
Maybe they can close the segment with a rousing rendition of "Barack... Hussein... Obama..., mmm, mmm, mmmm"?

After this it is scary to think how low they will go next.

Does anyone think that these kids are old enough to be able to sufficiently form an opinion on these issues?
That's a rhetorical question.

It is child abuse what NBC did to those poor kids. They have zero morals and ethics.

No kidding. I abhor when adults use kids to spread most any message, but particularly political messages. Kids of that age are worrying about whatever hot video game or toy is the latest rage - certainly not politics.......unless some adults (teachers/parents) are busy poisoning their minds.
I can't imagine what the adults have told these kids - "Trump won, he's going to kill all Mexicans - here, make this commercial."
My god - just let kids be kids and go play on the playground!
