AIPAC Dumps Last-Minute $9M Behind Mike Rogers in Rebuke of Abdul El-Sayed
AIPAC’s super PAC quietly routs up to $9M to help Mike Rogers beat Abdul El-Sayed, timed to stay hidden until after Election Day.
What the coverage shows
The New York Times frames the story around AIPAC’s last-minute spending and emphasizes that the group, usually aligned with Democrats, has spent heavily against Abdul El-Sayed, with a note that Mike Rogers’s campaign had initial concerns. 60 Minutes does not focus on the donation at all; its extract is only about the second and final Michigan Senate debate between El-Sayed and Rogers. The two outlets therefore diverge sharply, with only the Times foregrounding the funding move.
