Networks Reported Bush 2006 Low Approval Numbers 13 Times More Than Obama’s 2014 Numbers

Networks Reported Bush 2006 Low Approval Numbers 13 Times More Than Obama’s 2014 Numbers: According to a study released by the Media Research Center last week, the network evening newscasts have been reluctant to report on President Barack Obama’s low-approval numbers, particularly compared to the extensive coverage given to then-President George W. Bush eight years ago.

The statistics compiled by MRC research director Rich Noyes found that the network evening news broadcasts (ABC, CBS, and NBC) reported on Bush’s numbers 124 times from the beginning of January through the end of August—compared to just nine times for Obama in the same time period during his second term in 2014.
