Broadcast networks deliver 92% negative coverage for Trump, 66% positive for Biden: Study

Media have 'never more biased' than they are now, Media Research Center concludes

The country’s major broadcast news media outlets have never been more negatively biased against a sitting president than Donald Trump, a conservative media watchdog has concluded in its latest study.

The Media Research Center has tracked broadcast network coverage of President Trump since he took office, finding in previous studies earlier in his term that the tone in reporting has been overwhelmingly negative. That slant in coverage was confirmed in the latest study released Tuesday by the Reston, Va.-based organization.

“Four years ago, the Big Three broadcast evening newscasts tried to destroy Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign with historically negative press coverage. This year, those newscasts are doubling down, with coverage that is even more hostile to the Republican,” wrote MRC Director of Research Rich Noyes.
