Study: Most Network News Coverage of Immigration Policy Is Negative
Tuesday, July 24, 2018 11:46 AM
By: Jeffrey Rodack
Ninety-two percent of the broadcast networks' news coverage of President Donald Trump's immigration policy has been negative, according to a new study by the Media Research Center.
Only 8 percent of the coverage has been positive, the conservative media watchdog said.
It noted the networks' coverage of the administration's immigration policy has been "relentlessly hostile."
ABC, CBS and NBC evening news programs have spent a combined 995 minutes focusing in on a variety of immigration topics since Trump was inaugurated. The issue came in second to the Russia investigation as the most covered topic. The Russia probe received a combined 1,680 minutes of airtime, the MRC reported.
It said the negative coverage is a result of reporters framing most of their coverage around those adversely impacted by Trump's enforcement program instead of those harmed by illegal immigration, according to the MRC.
Nearly 44 percent pf the 1,087 sound bites from nonpartisan sources came from victims of the Trump policies, including illegal immigrants and their families. By contrast, the network news aired 83 soundbites from law enforcement.
And the MRC noted: "During the past 18 months, the networks' coverage of immigration has not been news, but rather obvious advocacy — heroes vs. villains, good guys vs. bad guys — with the administration clearly wearing the black hats."

TV News Gives Migrants 120 Times Airtime As Victimized Americans
1
NBC24 Jul 2018More than 90 percent of establishment media coverage is hostile towards President Donald Trump’s immigration policies, says a report by the Media Research Center.
“The negative tone is a consequence of journalists’ decision to frame nearly all of their coverage around the plight of those adversely affected by the administration’s enforcement program, rather than those harmed by illegal immigration or those who support enforcing existing law,” MRC said.
Since January 2017, the evening news broadcasts by CBS, NBC and ABC have let only four victims of violence by illegal immigrants state their case on TV, while 478 migrants, illegal immigrants, and other foreigners were given time in front of the camera to make their case to Americans, said the report.
The report said:During the 18 months of the Trump presidency, immigration has received more airtime on the three broadcast evening news shows than any other policy topic. The networks’ coverage has been relentlessly hostile to the administration (92% negative, just 8% positive), largely because these newscasts have framed nearly all of their coverage around the plight of those adversely affected by the administration’s enforcement agenda, and have virtually ignored law enforcement or anyone harmed by illegal immigration …
Lopsided as it is, the networks’ preference for soundbites from Trump’s victims doesn’t fully account for the 92% negative news on this topic. Reporters and anchors themselves amplified the messages of “fear,” “dread,” and even “terror” among those barred from entering the U.S. or facing deportation.
On the February 11, 2017 NBC Nightly News, as the lax Obama-era policies were replaced, correspondent Gabe Gutierrez said: “families of undocumented immigrants say they’re now living in fear….An immigration attorney in Atlanta, says there is a sense of panic among her clients.” On March 3, then-CBS Evening News anchor Scott Pelley warned: “There is a growing sense of dread among immigrants in America.”

They see the truth, they just want something different than we do, because most of them are DEMOQUACKS.
