MSNBC and CNN mostly ignore the major peace deal between Israel and the UAE during the initial period

While CNN devoted significant coverage during its evening programming to the Israeli-Bahraini deal, MSNBC spent less than two minutes covering major news throughout the day.

The longest clip on MSNBC on this topic lasted for only one minute and 22 seconds, when Lieutenant Colonel Ayman Mohiuddin asked his session why President Trump announced the peace agreement on the nineteenth anniversary of the events of 9/11.

Likewise, both MSNBC and CNN have downplayed their coverage of the main deal Trump brokered between Israel and the United Arab Emirates last month.
