Media blackout?

I have been a member of the Club at Doral for many years, which is now known as the Club at Trump National Doral.

I exercise at the health facility there frequently, and while on the elliptical machine, I generally watch television.

While CNN and Fox News are usually available, only MSNBC’s visual feed is available.

Since Donald Trump took over Doral and began running for president, the audio portion of MSNBC shows is blocked and unavailable.

I have asked the staff about this problem many times, and recently, I received an interesting reply: “Mr. Trump does not want people at the resort listening to MSNBC.”

Peter M. Brooke,

Doral
