CBS Joins Giddy ABC in Boasting GOP Has ‘Struggling’ Candidates, Polls
Slowly providing more midterm coverage after relatively few direct segments post-primary season (aside from passing nods to, say, gas prices hurting voters), ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS Mornings both touted on Thursday leaked audio from Texas Republican senatorial candidate Ken Paxton criticizing the party’s Dallas midterm convention and reveled in painting a near-inevitable blue…
IT’S (D)IFFERENT: ABC Selectively Reports Senate Candidate Gaffes

Kimmel Gushes Over Talarico For Using 'The Real Teachings Of Jesus'
To avoid any FCC equal time ramifications, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel begrudgingly put his Thursday interview with Texas Senate James Talarico exclusively on YouTube. However, the actual interview showed why the FCC is taking a closer look at equal time rules because for Talarico it was less of an interview and more of an out-of-state campaign rally. Kimmel’s main point of praise was how Talarico…
Talarico Pressed by Vittert Over Views of Capitalism, Trans Surgeries

Morning Joe Ignores Talarico Church's Talk of Wishing Trump Killed
