The Media Research Center has just done an analysis of all the coverage both President Trump and Kamala have been getting from ABC News since she stepped into the race and it’s been 100% positive for Kamala and nearly the complete opposite for Trump.
Here’s how the MRC measured the campaign stories that were broadcast on ABC News:
MRC analysts reviewed all 100 campaign stories that aired on ABC’s World News Tonight from the day Harris entered the race (July 21) through September 6, including weekends. Our analysts found 25 clearly positive statements about Harris from reporters, anchors, voters or other non-partisan sources, with zero negative statements — none. That computes to a gravity-defying 100% positive spin score for the Vice President.
As for Trump, our analysts found just five clearly positive comments, vs. 66 negative statements, for a dismal 7 percent positive (93% negative) spin score.
Our measure of good press/bad press omits partisan comments, as well as “horse race” assessments about the candidates’ poll standings and prospects. So while viewers of ABC’s World News Tonight certainly heard negative comments about Harris during these past six-and-a-half weeks, all of them were from Trump, his campaign team, or other Republicans — never from reporters or nonpartisan sources.
At the same time, while our spin score similarly excludes all Democratic soundbites about the Republican nominee, ABC’s reporters and anchors either jumped in to criticize Trump themselves, or broadcast negative comments from non-partisan sources to impart a heavily negative spin to the former President’s coverage.
It’s no shock that the garbage media has been giving wet kisses to Kamala since Biden endorsed her to take his place. They want her to be the next president, which is why they’ve all but ignored her incredible flip-flops on the radical positions she’s been espousing up until she began running for president. While Trump, as always, gets nothing but negative coverage.
But this is especially troubling given that ABC News is hosting a debate tomorrow night and I fully expect we’ll see that pro-Kamala bias happening on the national debate stage – and I think ABC News is counting on it.
