Trump creates committee to investigate Fed's Lisa Cook
President Trump established a committee to look into allegations that Fed Governor Lisa Cook made false statements on mortgage documents, the latest step in his renewed effort to fire her.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets center on Trump setting up a committee to investigate Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, but NBC News frames it as his “latest attempt to fire her,” while CNBC uses the more neutral “appoints committee” wording. CNBC is also alone in adding the extra context about Cook being a Biden nominee and the Supreme Court blocking Trump’s first attempt.
