Episode 243: Missing the Larger Narrative

Today on Polilogue, we applaud Face the Nation for framing a larger trend rather than covering a single moment. In this instance, Margaret Brennan didn’t just talk about a single Trump rally, but framed the rally and Senator Chuck Grassley’s participation as an example of a larger trend within the Republican Party.

Also on Polilogue, Treasure Secretary Janet Yellen finally made an appearance on the Sunday news shows! … and she said absolutely nothing of substance.

Shows discussed 

State of the Union on CNN

Fox News Sunday on FOX

This Week on ABC

Face the Nation on CBS
