What the coverage shows

Coverage largely converges on the same ballot-stacking allegation and the resulting official response, with many outlets centering investigations, subpoenas, or a criminal probe. The New York Times, Reuters, CNN, Axios, Fox News, NBC News, and CBS all frame the story around the reported recruitment of a second Dan Sullivan, while NBC, CBS, and CNBC emphasize the DOJ’s escalation; Democracy Now! is the only outlet to foreground a DOJ lawsuit to block certification, and NPR is the only one to pivot to fishing and broader campaign context.
