ABC & NBC Ignore Carjacking of Congresswoman, CBS Gives Just 24 Seconds
On Tuesday evening, Illinois Senator Kimberly Lightford was carjacked by three suspects wearing masks, according to a report by Fox 32 News. The next day, Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon was also carjacked at gunpoint by two men at F.D.R. Park in Philadelphia. Apparently, none of the three broadcast evening newscasts thought these stories deserved to be covered in depth.

CBS Evening News was the only evening network newscast to cover the carjacking of Congresswoman Scanlon, which only lasted a scant twenty-four seconds.

According to CBS Evening News fill-in host Jamie Yuccas, Congresswoman Scanlon had her personal cell phone, her government cell phone, her purse as well as her 2017 Acura stolen:

Tonight, a U.S. Congresswoman is a victim of the surging crime that's being seen in so many cities. Representative Mary Gay Scanlon was carjacked at gunpoint by two men at F.D.R. Park in Philadelphia. She was not hurt. The robbers, though, took off with her 2017 Acura, her personal and government cell phones, her purse, and I.D. Philadelphia has recorded more than 500 homicides this year.

CBS did not mention the carjacking of Senator Lightford. In fact, none of the networks mentioned her. Only Fox News' Special Report mentioned both attacks:

Illinois State Senator Kimberly Lightfoot Ford (sic) and her husband were victims of a carjacking last night in suburban Chicago. Lightford in that area. Police say multiple gunshots were fired but no one was injured. Police in south Philadelphia meantime say Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon was the victim of another carjacking this afternoon. They say Scanlon was walking to her parked vehicle and was approached by two men demanding her vehicle keys.

We're the peeps Amish? That would explain the lack of news coverage.

Could be Amish, or maybe Quakers.
