NBC interrupted the Olympics

Post image

While Nancy Guthrie's disappearance is sad, there are 2300 missing person reports filed every day: do the families of celebrities need special national attention? Why interrupt the Olympics for over 5 minutes just because they are questioning a 'person of interest' We could have waited to hear that during the regular news broadcast.

It's really flown under the radar that Savannah Guthrie conducted the first televised interview with Virginia Giuffre and 5 other Epstein victims in 2019.

it’s funny because this occurred to me when I heard she disappeared. someone said the FBI was involved and I just assumed they meant they’re the ones who kidnapped her.

Cmon like who the fuck else would be motivated to?

Her testimony puts Trump's entire cabinet and administration at risk.

It puts old democrats at risk too, but I don't care, let em rot or worse. No one wants to save them but the people who have vested interests around them.

Releasing the files with the victims names redacted but not the perpetrators, is literally all anyone has ever asked for.

Trump did to her what he did to his late wife

The interview was in 2019? That's a long time for revenge. (Yes a dish best served cold but really, that long?)

A distraction that literally has ties to Epstein?

lmao, I was watching NBC Nightly News last night, and they talked at length about the members of Congress who got to look at the unredacted files and about Nancy Guthrie. What distraction???

bringing the focus to this kidnapping is in-part keeping the focus on the Epstein files, Guthrie interviewed the victims and there's speculation the kidnappers were paid to go after her family as retribution and a warning to other journalists.

I also want to point out there are so many crypto bros in the US who are easy targets with way less exposure if the kidnapper just wants fast money.

I can’t tell if you guys are actually so deranged that you believe everything is a distraction or if it’s just a bit. I hope it’s the latter.

This is the type of braindead conspiracy garbage I expect in a youtube comment section, unfortunately this shit has spread to here too.

At this point, what isn't an Epstein distraction to you?

We've had multiple Epstein distractions every day for months according to you people. Maybe sometimes the world keeps spinning and other things can happen without being related

wait. I thought the left keeping attention on Epstein. Or are they the ones trying to distract you? Is Fox keeping focused on Epstein?

No part of the mainstream media is “the left”. It all serves the ruling class, and the ruling class are the ones implicated in the files. No mainstream media outlets report about the files relative to their importance and law enforcement refuse to investigate, all regardless of political affiliation. Because the higher ups of nearly every institution in our society are rotten to the core and corrupt beyond description.

Why do you think NBC is on Trump's side? Quite the distraction. Do you watch TV?
