Analysis: How the cable networks covered Trump
from each channel’s coverage, one per minute. The result is a visual depiction of how the networks — CNN, Fox News and MSNBC — chose to present Trump’s announcement speech.Trump was scheduled to begin speaking at 9 p.m. but started a few minutes late. Fox News was already carrying the feed live as Trump entered the ballroom at Mar-a-Lago where the announcement was made.
One interesting aspect of the timing of Fox News’s breaking away from the speech is that Trump had already gone over the expected duration of his comments. As is the norm for one of his speeches, his recitation of the speech offered on the teleprompter was interrupted repeatedly with asides and tangents somewhat at odds with the structure of the scripted speech. Those asides made up more of the content of the speech as the speech ground on.
