Slightly amused that NBC news cut off the hateful Cardinal Dolan's benediction mid-sentence and went to commercial.

As Twitchy told you earlier, NY Archbishop Timothy Cardinal Dolan’s closing benediction was the DNC speech of the night. Predictably, mainstream media outlets didn’t want viewers to see it. Twitter users made their displeasure known:
#nbc cut off the #dnc feed before cardinal Dolan gave the closing prayer…rude.—

Hey NBC, thanks for cutting off Cardinal Dolan with the local news. Can't wait a few more mins to spin?—

And NBC just cut away from Cardinal Dolan. FAIL #DNC2012—

Drat. They were about to have Dolan give #dnc benediction as NBC cut over to local news. Really wanted to hear it.—

So is Fox the only one carrying Ab Dolan's closing prayer??? NBC didn't.—

Only FOX shows all of Cardinal Dolan's closing prayer. CNN & MSNBC go to their talking heads – did not want to hear him pray for the unborn—

MSNBC talks over Cardinal Dolan's benediction, what a shock!—

And there's the bias…Fox News shows Cardinal Dolan's benediction, CNN keeps it in background, MSNBC cuts audio/video.—

@seanhannity @CNN did not air the Cardinal Dolan benediction. So I'm mad.—
Joe Lanoie (@TheJoeDude27) September 07, 2012
@SereDoc Had the same thought…CNN didn't cover Cardinal Dolan's prayer/speech either.—

How did ABC News do?
Can't believe online-streaming ABC news is talking over Cardinal Dolan's benediction prayer!!! No way!—

ABC really isn't going to show Cardinal Dolan's prayer?!?—

And the official #DNC2012 feed cut him off, too:
#DNC2012 live stream didn't air Cardinal Dolan's benediction. Thanks for censoring—
