TV News Feasts on Trump Controversies While Ignoring Hillary’s Scandals


Recommended Posts

MSM owned by corporations completely biased towards dem candidates yet people think Citizens v. Unitied was ruled incorrectly.  Freedom of speech doesn't just extend to those that claim to be the press.

MRC analysts reviewed all 1,099 stories on the ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts which talked about the presidential campaign between January 1 through June 7, including weekends. This tally includes 950 full reports and interview segments; 66 short items read by the anchor; plus 83 stories on other topics that included some discussion of one or more of the candidates.

The overall amount of campaign airtime is extraordinary: 2,137 minutes of coverage, or more than one-fourth (26.1%) of all evening news airtime during this period, excluding commercials and teases.

Nearly half of that airtime (1,068 minutes) was spent talking about Donald Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee, compared to 583 minutes of coverage for Hillary Clinton. Clinton’s rival for the Democratic nomination, Vermont socialist Bernie Sanders, came in third, with 366 minutes of coverage, more than any of Trump’s GOP rivals.

Compared to Clinton, a much higher percentage of Trump’s airtime (40 percent, or 432 minutes) was spent discussing the controversies surrounding the Republican’s candidacy. Only 18 percent of Clinton’s coverage (105 minutes) was spent discussing similar controversies, as network reporters paid scant attention to stories that would have garnered far more airtime had Trump been involved.

I will say i caught meghan kelly last night and she was hilarious.... She had some awesome things to say about the "sit in" as well as Hillary. Sometimes i dont like how she presents things but she had a good show last night.

Agree on this though i feel the tides will turn.

I get ABC news updates on the local station we listen to at work.

While reporting on Trump s criticism of Hillary, the reporter is adding his own comments and defense of her.

It is crazy.

It is crazy. 

I get the CNN and MSN RSS feed at work and it is pretty brutal.  I think the most positive headline I've seen from a Trump article is "Trump Wins 'x' State." 

Everything else is negative at best.
