Here’s how all of the big three evening news networks covered the announcement today by Ted Cruz that he’s running for president in 2016. I’ve watch them all and I have my favorite and the one I think is absolutely the worst.
I’ve got a poll at the bottom for you guys to tell me which you think is the worst, but I’ll just go ahead and tell you I think the worst is ABC News. They lead the segment saying that Ted Cruz is promising “no abortion, no gay marriage, no gun control.” Funny, I don’t remember those being the highlights of his speech today, and no other news segment I’ve see even touched on those issues. Of course they are already trying to pigeonhole him. And then you’ve got Jon Karl at the end of the segment almost laughing at the idea that Ted Cruz can have broad appeal. Definitely the worst.
As far as my favorite, it’s probably NBC News. It seemed to be the most fair out of the bunch.
Watch them all (they are short) and fill out the poll below:
