presiden&#8217;t address as he desperately tried to convince Americans that the econmy is in good shape on Wednesday night, sources told CNN.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>However, CNN, ABC, CBS, and NBC all refused to display the slides of bar charts and line graphs on topics such as food prices and wages because the material did not clearly cite the sources of the information.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p>Much to no one&#8217;s surprise, MAGA favorite AKA Fox News featured the government-approved slides and graphics, with the network\u2019s primetime host Sean Hannity also using them on his show.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\">\n<p data-marker-percentage=\"50\">Despite not wanting to display the charts, several major news networks still helped the president by opting to air his speech live.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"text-description\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"photo
