MSNBC delays documentary over fears it could 'offend Donald Trump': report

Raw Story  

A documentary about the Trump administration's family separation policy will not air before Election Day because MSNBC is concerned about offending the Republican presidential nominee, according to new reports. Journalist Oliver Darcy, a former critic for CNN, revealed Tuesday that the Errol Morris documentary based on Jacob Soboroff's 2020 book "Separated: Inside an American Tragedy," is being held by NBC bosses until Dec. 7 — a move that apparently annoyed the director. Darcy also reported NBC bosses "don’t want to offend Donald Trump, according to The Wrap." "On Monday’s edition of his Status newsletter, he reported that Rebecca Blumenstein, president of editorials for NBC News, opposed airing 'Separated' before the election because the network still hopes Trump will agree to another presidential debate," the outlet reported.
