A Republican attack ad misidentifies its Democratic target. Twice.
A GOP ad used a photo of Republican Myron Lizer instead of Democrat Jonathan Nez. Nez is challenging Rep. Eli Crane (R-Arizona).
What the coverage shows
The Washington Post alone foregrounds the ad’s error, saying a GOP ad used a photo of Republican Myron Lizer instead of Democrat Jonathan Nez. The Guardian US instead frames the story around Democratic Senate candidate Annie Andrews responding to Republican anti-trans attacks and says she voiced opposition to “biological men … in women’s sports.”
