From The Poynter Report with Tom Jones:
Coverage of the Donald Trump arraignment on Tuesday was, in a word, exhaustive.
Wall-to-wall coverage with blaring “BREAKING NEWS” banners and, literally, dozens upon dozens of anchors, reporters and analysts punctuating the coverage on not only cable news networks, but broadcast networks, as well.
ABC, CBS and NBC all broke into regular programming with the big three evening news anchors (David Muir, Norah O’Donnell and Lester Holt) anchoring the coverage. CNN brought in prime-time bigwigs Anderson Cooper and Jake Tapper. Rachel Maddow hosted MSNBC’s prime-time coverage.
