ABC, NBC, CBS overwhelmingly fail to mention when Trump prosecutors are Democrats
Fox News
A study of ABC’s "World News Tonight," "NBC Nightly News" and "CBS Evening News" from January 1 to August 31 found that networks rarely identify Trump prosecutors as "Democrats."
The conservative-leaning MRC found the evening newscasts on ABC, NBC and CBS spent 872 minutes covering former President Trump, with 751 of those minutes dedicated to his legal issues. The Florida documents case, the federal probe of Trump’s post-2020 election activities, the Manhattan "hush money" case and the Georgia election case all received significant air time.

"Yet even as these legal dramas dominate the political discourse, the networks have strained to present the prosecutors as non-partisan actors — even those who ran and won their offices as Democratic partisans," MRC analyst Rich Noyes wrote.
