'Not Actually Groping': NBC's Kasie Hunt Runs Cover For Al Franken

NBC News corespondent and prominent #MeToo supporter Kasie Hunt ran cover for admitted sexual predator Al Franken on MSNBC Thursday, insisting his groping of journalist Leeann Tweeden is "not actually groping."

Leanne Tweeden said plainly he groped her and kissed her without her consent, including by shoving his disgusting tongue into her mouth.

"I couldn't believe it," Tweeden said. "He groped me, without my consent, while I was asleep."

NBC's Hunt evidently knows better.

As Breitbart reports:

Appearing on MSNBC, the left-wing Hunt said, "And then [Franken] took a picture, which his office now says was a joke, that shows him not actually groping, but mock-groping her while she was asleep."

This was not a mistake on Hunt's part. It is all-too obvious that NBC has already manufactured a false narrative to undermine Tweeden and save Franken. After all, here is a separate report where Hunt again describes Franken's behavior as "mock-groping."

Just last month, Hunt declared herself in solidarity with sexual misconduct victims through the #MeToo campaign:

I'm *literally shaking* right now. I can't believe Hunt would say this in 2017 (of all years).

In all seriousness, notice how Hunt completely ignored how Franken shoved his vomit-inducing tongue into her mouth?

Why did she leave that out when that was the main focus of the story? Why did she leave that out -- twice -- and instead only mention she was "uncomfortable" having to "rehearse" his skit?
