Former special counsel Jack Smith accused of targeting ‘entire Republican party’ in heated Senate hearing – US politics live

What the coverage shows

All six outlets center Jack Smith’s Senate appearance, but they frame the hearing differently. CBS News and The Hill describe it more neutrally as testimony about Trump probes or the 2020 election and Jan. 6, while AP alone foregrounds the committee’s accusations of “abuse of authority” and “targeting of Republicans.” CNN is the only one to mention, via prepared remarks, that Smith will say he stands by his decision to prosecute Trump, and NBC alone ties the hearing to the Justice Department’s pursuit of investigators.
