Lester Holt Skips Naming Capitol Cop Killer Noah Green, or His Farrakhan Love
19th April 2021
On Friday’s NBC Nightly News, they focused on recent political violence against the Capitol Police, but they were obviously more interesting in tagging the “far right” for recent violence, and not the “far left.” When the April 2 Capitol cop killing came up, the assailant Noah Green was not named, and his love for Louis Farrakhan was also spiked.
Lester Holt touted “a milestone today in the investigation of the deadly riot at the US Capitol, the first guilty plea.” He turned to NBC Justice Department correspondent Pete Williams, and they were naming names and applying labels.
