Nets Skip Corrupt Ex-Democratic Mayor of Baltimore Sentenced to Prison

The broadcast networks weren’t really interested when ex-Democratic Mayor of Baltimore Catherine Pugh was raided by the FBI and the IRS in April of last year amid charges of corruption, nor when she was forced to resign just a few days later. So, it’s not surprising that ABC, CBS, and NBC completely ignored her pleading guilty and sentenced to three years in prison on Thursday.

Previously, CBS had skipped news of the raid against Pugh while ABC and NBC failed to mention she was a Democrat. Then, ABC was the only broadcast network to inform viewers of her resignation, but they again refused to note her party affiliation.

Fortunately, PBS’s News Hour and anchor Judy Woodruff decided that Pugh’s sentencing was worth some airtime.

“Former Baltimore mayor Catherine Pugh was sentenced today to three years in federal prison, for a scam involving her children's books. The veteran Democrat earned hundreds of thousands of dollars in fraudulent sales of the books. She pled guilty to conspiracy and tax evasion,” Woodruff reported.

  3. Who paid for Pugh's crimes? Citizens of Baltimore did. After all, taxes that Pugh skimmed over weren't replaced by the local dog population. Pretty easy to conclude the replacement of lost revenue was put on the backs of TAX PAYING citizens. Nothing racial here at all. Just crooks getting law obeying citizens, regardless of race, to pick up their tab.

    Suckers! Wise up. You have been had by the Democratic Political party.

  4. Maybe you the dum dum author just doesnt read or listen too good. 60 secs on google and I found where both ABC and CBS mentioned "disgraced democrat politician". Not that it matters. Believe it or not, most of us like calling out corruption on both sides of the aisle. Why dont you join us.
