El-Sayed and Rogers toss insults in Michigan Senate debate
In Thursday's Michigan Senate debate, Democrat Abdul El-Sayed and Republican Mike Rogers sparred over the Iran war and cost-of-living issues — and flung insults across the stage in nearly every exchange.

What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story as a debate recap centered on Ossoff and Collins, with Newsweek using a broader “key moments and polls” angle and the New York Times focusing on the exchange itself. The Times alone highlights the specific insults each candidate used, including Ossoff calling Collins a “bigot” and Collins calling Ossoff a “radical ‘trust-fund kid.’” Newsweek instead foregrounds the context that Democrats are working to defend Ossoff’s seat.
