NBC News backtracks on report that said Trump did not visit troops over Christmas
< < Go Back
NBC News attempted to backtrack on an article published Wednesday which claimed President Donald Trump did not visit the troops over Christmastime when in fact, he did.
The liberal news outlet admitted in an extended editor’s note that “the thrust of this article is no longer correct.” NBC also adjusted the headline to: “Trump becomes first president since 2002 not to visit troops on or before Christmas.” The president and first lady left Wednesday night to visit the troops on Thursday.
The note which was published at the top of the original article read: “On Wednesday, NBC News compiled a list of every Christmastime visit to active troops by a president since 2001. That list, as detailed in the article below, showed that former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama visited troops on or before Christmas every year since 2003, and President Donald Trump did so in 2017.
