What did the Republicans lose in the US midterms?
Democrats took the Senate and the House of Representatives from the Republicans. AJLabs maps the wave in US midterms.
What the coverage shows
Both CBS News and 60 Minutes frame the story around Republican midterm losses and the party’s need to account for what went wrong. 60 Minutes is the only outlet to mention the Republican redistricting push and the Democrats’ strong House majority, while CBS News alone foregrounds the GOP’s internal soul-searching and an expected blame game.
