Los Angeles Mayoral Candidates Vie for Undecided Voters
Mayor Karen Bass and her onetime ally, Nithya Raman, made their case to voters with just five weeks left until the election.
What the coverage shows
The New York Times frames the race as a general pitch to undecided voters, highlighting Mayor Karen Bass and Nithya Raman with five weeks left until the election. Fox News instead spotlights only Raman, and only there does the coverage focus on her opposition to the Trump administration’s proposed Head Start English-only rule and her vow to fight it with a lawsuit.
