"I wish that our media, and I wish reporters like you, Kaitlan, would talk about the victims every day that we interact with, that we send you the stories on, that you refuse to tell, about the poor little girl and baby that was strangled yesterday, by an illegal criminal, and died. That baby died overnight. That was the first news I got this morning, when I got up at 04:00 a.m."
"You know what, Kaitlan? Just if you guys would just tell the truth, about what these criminals are, and what they've done and their history COLLINS: Yes, we we tell the truth, every night. NOEM: and make it about the victims that'd be fantastic. We send out about five or six different press releases, every day, correcting stories, and I'll send you the copies of the ones that you've gotten wrong that we've been able to correct."
Kaitlan Collins and Kristi Noem debated media coverage of a shooting at an ICE detention facility that killed two migrant detainees. Noem accused the media of failing to report victims and mischaracterizing incidents, citing a strangled baby and an abandoned autistic girl as examples. Collins emphatically defended CNN, asserting the network tells the truth every night and directly challenged Noem's specific claims. Noem said she circulates multiple press releases daily to correct errors and argued law enforcement officers are being demonized and deserve community support. The exchange included interruptions and focused on media accountability, victim coverage, and public safety.
