**Fiasco of the Mainstream Media: A 92% Negative Coverage of Trump’s Second Administration**
In an alarming display of media bias, President Donald Trump’s second administration has been inundated with a staggering 92% negative coverage across major television networks, just 100 days into his term.
This striking statistic, courtesy of the Media Research Center, reflects a stark contrast to the treatment afforded to former President Joe Biden, who enjoyed a positive coverage rate of 59% during his initial months in office.
The analysis of the Big Three evening newscasts—ABC, CBS, and NBC—reveals that out of 899 stories related to Trump or his administration, a staggering 1,698 were unfavorable. In stark comparison, Biden’s presidency faced far less scrutiny, with a significant portion of airtime dedicated to positive narratives that bolstered his agenda.
The networks have relentlessly focused on an array of serious policy issues under Trump’s leadership, including tariffs, immigration, and government downsizing through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Yet, the overwhelming majority of this coverage has been characterized by negativity, neglecting to communicate the actual successes and benefits of these policies to the American public.
For instance, media outlets dedicated hundreds of minutes to Trump’s tariffs—a measure seen as vital for protecting American jobs and industries—yet the narrative has been predominantly alarmist, warning of potential economic doom without acknowledging the positive aspects of job preservation highlighted by supporters in the industry.
Similarly, the administration's hardline approach to immigration has effectively reduced illegal border crossings, yet the media has chosen to amplify criticisms instead of recognizing the laudable outcomes of Trump’s policies.
The narrative around the Department of Government Efficiency, spearheaded by tech mogul Elon Musk, has been portrayed negatively despite efforts to reduce government waste and inefficiency. Coverage has often favored disgruntled federal employees over a national dialogue about more efficient governance.
Experts indicate this pervasive negative coverage could be contributing to a growing mistrust of the media among the American populace. As Gallup recently reported, public confidence in the media has sharply declined, revealing a disconnect between the media's portrayal of political figures and the experiences of ordinary citizens who support Trump’s policies.
The implications of this skewed coverage are far-reaching, influencing public perception and voter sentiment as the 2026 elections approach. It raises crucial questions about the integrity of journalistic practices in an age where media bias appears glaringly evident.
As Trump continues to navigate turbulent waters during his presidency, one can only hope that the media begins to recognize the value in fair representation of all political viewpoints and prioritizes accuracy over sensationalism. The American people deserve a politics free from bias that informs rather than divides.
