Trump dominates network coverage on eve of major election

GOP front-runner Donald Trump dominated the news cycle again Monday evening, as the major networks spent a full 84 percent of their nightly broadcasts talking about the billionaire businessman and not his Republican competition.

ABC News’ “World News Tonight with David Muir,” CBS News’ “Evening News with Scott Pelley” and NBC News’ “Nightly News” each led their newscasts Monday night with coverage of the 2016 GOP presidential primary, spending a combined total of 18 minutes and 17 seconds on the issue, according to analysis by the Media Research Center.
