Sunday shows made zero mention of Trump's 9-11 stories

Donald Trump bragged about his building now being the tallest in NYC after the Twin Towers collapsed.
Also, Trump promised to donate $10,000 to the Twin Towers fund via the Trump Foundation, but no record of such donation exists.

There was zero coverage of these news in the Sunday shows, as reported here: http://mediamatters.org/blog/2016/09/12/awful-911-trump-stories-sunday-shows-all-ignored-while-remembering-911/212994

But did not. Is that not newsworthy?
that makes two people defending the media's refusal to inform viewers of Trump's lies and disrespect for 9-11 victims. Unbelievable.
