Study reveals media bias in coverage of Trump and Harris ahead of US elections

A study by the Media Research Center shows significant media bias in the 2024 presidential race. Kamala Harris has received 78% positive coverage, while Donald Trump has faced 85% negative coverage on major networks, marking a stark contrast to 2016. The analysis, covering over 600 segments from ABC, CBS, and NBC, highlights that Trump has been the focus of more than 200 minutes of negative coverage. In comparison, issues related to Harris have often been downplayed or ignored. As the November 5 elections approach, Harris and Trump are tied at 48% in a recent poll. This election follows President Biden's withdrawal from the race, endorsing Harris as the Democratic nominee.
