Colorado Times Recorder: Evans Rejects Interview Requests from 9News But Embraces TV Network That Promotes Conspiracies & Trump

  • U.S. Rep. Gabe Evans (R-CO) has been declining interview requests from 9News, a widely respected news outlet, but he’s found time to take questions on NTD News… which has been shown in multiple investigations to boost Trump and spread misinformation, including vaccine, QAnon and election fraud conspiracies.
  • Evans also promoted his NTD appearance in a recent edition of his congressional newsletter.
  • He’s also appeared on another far-right online news outlet, Real America’s Voice (RAV), which routinely promotes conspiracy theories, carries Steve Bannon’s podcast, and produces content for Trump’s media company, Trump Media & Technology Group. As with NTD, Evans promotes his RAV interview on his official Congressional YouTube channel.
