Protesters ejected from raucous Trump rally in Texas

Several hecklers were removed from President Trump's rally in Texas late Wednesday, drawing jeers from the crowd as the president made fun of the protesters.

What the coverage shows

Most outlets converge on the rally being disrupted by protesters or hecklers while Trump was stumping for Ken Paxton in Texas. CBS News, NBC News, CNN and The Guardian US foreground the interruptions themselves, with NBC alone highlighting one protester being grabbed by an audience member, while The Hill and Fox News emphasize Trump’s response and his claim that the hecklers were paid. The New York Times and Washington Post frame the stop more through the Texas race and Republican worries, and The Atlantic is the outlier, using a more reflective piece that only loosely matches the event.
