The hosts criticize NBC News 36 for its coverage of a July 4th Independence Day celebration at the Texas State Capitol.

Steve Lane and Rusty Fields host "The Freedom Report," discussing an Independence Day rally at the Texas State Capitol.

The hosts argue this was a deliberate attempt to make the freedom movement appear anti-American.
