What the coverage shows
Most outlets frame this as a live rally in Iowa, with PBS NewsHour, CNN, AP and Reuters leading on Trump’s appearance and support for GOP candidates, and Reuters alone saying he was expected to speak. The Guardian US headline is the only one to foreground the Ramaswamy ad story, while CNN later also singles out Trump defending the ad and urging him to keep running it.
