Hours after the Associated Press fired off a since-deleted viral tweet falsely claiming 2024 GOP vice presidential candidate JD Vance shrugged off school shootings like Wednesday’s in Georgia as “a fact of life,” Friday’s CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today joined in this a blatant case of election interference by touting the “backlash” to Vance’s comment...which was actually about the need to fortify schools.

Of course, none brought up the AP tweet or the real firestorm it caused Thursday night on X.
