The “legacy” media have been considered to be a nihilistic institution, especially lately. Tonight’s report on ABC World News Tonight puts any and all doubt to rest, as they prop up a liberal favorite by promoting a movie they had no business promoting.
Watch the full report on the release for the trailer of Rust, starring Alec Baldwin, as aired on ABC World News Tonight on Wednesday, March 26th, 2025:

WHIT JOHNSON: A first look at the trailer for the movie “Rust” ahead of its release in May.
ALEC BALDWIN: Some things in this life you can’t get back, I reckon.
JOHNSON: The movie, starring Alec Baldwin, became infamous before it was even completed, after the 2021 on-set tragedy that killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and wounded director Joel Souza. Charges against Baldwin were eventually dropped.
One is left wondering what pirouettes were performed by Alec Baldwin’s publicity team in order to score this “story”. One thing is for certain and it is that Rust would have drawn scant to no coverage at all had Balwin not accidentally shot and killed the movie’s cinematographer.
This tragedy garnered significant attention across the network dial. From the shooting, to the investigation and through the trial. It seems unsavory to now reward Baldwin with free media and exposure for the film.
But Baldwin, of course, is a notorious liberal celebrity who made his bones berating conservatives and by manifesting extreme Trump Derangement Syndrome. The Regime, perhaps saw fit to throw Baldwin a bone- especially after being brutally and publicly humiliated by his wife with the phony Spaniard accent. Unless the surviving loved ones of the shooting victim are getting a cut of the film’s profits, there was no real reason to promote it on valuable network news air time.
