What the coverage shows
Most outlets frame the story as a report that Democrats or people aligned with Mary Peltola helped recruit a second Dan Sullivan for the Alaska Senate ballot, with CBS News, NBC News, AP, Fox News and the Times all centering that allegation. The New York Times is the source of the reporting and twice foregrounds the “secret effort” and “how Democrats manipulated Alaska’s ballot,” while The Hill adds a broader “controversy” angle and one item says the Justice Department case is now before a federal judge. PBS NewsHour is the only outlet here that explicitly foregrounds Trump’s call for Peltola to drop out.
