NBC News Decided That This Moment Of Prayer Would Be The Opportune Time For A Live Hit
Posted • July 19, 2024: Thursday night's evening session brought us the final night of the Republican National Convention, during which former and potentially future President Donald Trump gave his nomination speech. Not long before, Rev. Franklin Graham gave a speech, which involved a prayer. It was a touching moment, and yet NBC News decided to do a live hit then, as the Daily Caller's Reagan Reese shared. Anchor Savannah Guthrie acknowledged that what was taking place on the stage "in fact may be a moment of prayer, but I want to go to Garrett Haake on the floor." In other words, they knew what was going on at that moment and ought to have known better. As she and co-anchor Lester Holt spoke to Haake for his live hit, Guthrie didn't even ask about Graham's speech or about how he was praying, but about if he had seen Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), Trump's running mate.
Haake went on to claim it was "a little bit unusual that Vance and his wife didn't show up with the Trumps and the Trump family when it came out." The camera panned to Trump and Vance both bowing their heads and closing their eyes in prayer. At this point, Haake, whose voice was noticeably low, also acknowledged he had "been asked to be very quiet," gestured to where Vance and Trump were sitting. Anchor Lester Holt then awkwardly acknowledged "yeah, we understand you're in a difficult spot," and they went to "break away" from Haake for the moment. NBC News just tried to do a live hit in the middle of a prayer on the RNC floor and several delegates started hitting the correspondent telling him to shut up and that it wasn’t appropriate to interrupt. The correspondent gets noticeably quieter and says delegates asked him to be quiet. A delegate nearby demanded to know which outlet he reported for.
Haake acknowledged that people had asked him to be quiet, but what isn't as clear in the clip is just how involved the delegates on the floor were. As Reese noted, "several delegates started hitting the correspondent telling him to shut up and that it wasn’t appropriate to interrupt." One delegate also asked which outlet Haake was with. (…)
