The GOPs governing body approved a resolution on Friday barring NBC News and CNN from partnering with the Republican National Committee in hosting 2016 presidential primary debates.
Members of the RNC, gathered in Boston for their Summer Meeting voted to bar NBC News and CNN from participating in 2016 debates due to forthcoming projects about Hillary Clinton planned by both network. They approved the resolution by a voice vote.
The resolution states that the RNC would not "partner with (CNN or NBC) in the 2016 presidential primary debates nor sanction any primary debates they sponsor."
Were done putting up with this nonsense, RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said ahead of the vote. There are plenty of other outlets. Well still reach voters, maybe more voters. But CNN and NBC anchors will just have to watch on their competitors networks.

Why are the networks partnering with political parties to begin with? If they really wanted to report the news, they would just report the facts and let the parties do what they do!
