MRC Action Team Call to Action

How obsessed are morning news programs with the Democrats andtheir race for the White House? You decide.

On Monday NBC's "The Today Show" devoted nearly seven minutesto the fight between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and just33 seconds to the GOP race--the day before a critical primary for Republicans in Michigan!

Did we mention that the Democrats aren't even competing in the Michigan primary because the state violated their Party rules?Even worse, "Today" spent almost eight minutes on the Detroit Auto Show in Michigan! That's nearly 16 times more news coverageabout new cars than about the Republican nomination for President of the United States.

Perhaps we shouldn't be surprised. You'll recall in our last update, MRC analysts spotlighted a disturbingly similar pattern duringthe Iowa Caucus where ABC's "Good Morning America" devoted 15 minutes to the Democratic Race and a scant 31 second blip to the Republicans! As I've said before, this isn’t by chance.Just a few months ago, the MRC released an exhaustive,seven-month study of network morning programs that clearlyshows twice as much air time is being given to Democratic candidates and a liberal agenda... and it's being done right under our noses!

Democrat or Republican, fair is fair. I will be reporting the news here that you don't see on the biased news stations.
