Reporters from The New York Times, CNN, and MSNBC banded together Thursdsay to complain when NBC News’ Hallie Jackson was cut off after the allowed two questions in Poland.
Jackson was asking Trump about Obama’s response to Russian interference and why Trump wouldn’t admit Russia was behind election interference given some intelligence agencies have already pegged them as responsible.
When she tried to go for an additional question, Polish officials cut her off.

When @HallieJackson asked a 3rd Q, announcer said, "Dear lady, two questions. Thank you very much. Thank you very much, must go." https://t.co/eSP5XMR0tJ

Jackson claimed she was asking a “follow-up” rather than a full third question.
Technically, it was a follow-up. Per protocol, was also about to ask a Q of President Duda of Poland (before they cut the mic.) https://t.co/lZFHfPb38D
