Trump pardons 2 auto workers on stage during rally in Alaska
President Trump granted onstage pardons to two Alaska auto shop owners who pleaded guilty to violating the Clean Air Act during a rally Tuesday — an unusually public use of the president's clemency power.
CBS News
What the coverage shows
All three outlets focus on the same basic frame: Trump pardoning two Alaska auto shop owners during a rally, with each noting their earlier guilty pleas to Clean Air Act violations. NBC News identifies the men by name and says they co-owned a vehicle repair shop in Anchorage, while CBS News emphasizes that the pardons were handed down on stage and calls them an unusually public use of clemency. 60 Minutes is the only one to place the rally in Wasilla.
