Sen. Chris Murphy released from hospital after stroke, will miss votes for 'several weeks' as he rehabs
The Connecticut Democrat Murphy has been discussed as a possible candidate for the White House in 2028.
What the coverage shows
All four outlets focus on Murphy being out of the hospital after a stroke, and three of the four also say he will miss upcoming votes or several weeks of votes. The Hill is the only outlet to quote Murphy saying he will spend several weeks at a rehabilitation center, while CBS News is the only one to include his doctor’s expectation of a full recovery after rehabilitation. NBC News is the only extract that describes the stroke as a “small hemorrhagic stroke.”
