Sen. Lisa Murkowski endorses Democrat in Alaska governor’s race
The Republican senator endorsed Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins over Trump-backed Bernadette Wilson a week before Election Day.
What the coverage shows
NBC News and Fox News both center Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s endorsement of Democrat Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins in Alaska’s governor’s race. NBC frames it as an endorsement made a week before Election Day and identifies Bernadette Wilson as Trump-backed, while Fox foregrounds the contrast with Trump by calling the move a snub and noting that Trump had backed a Republican candidate.
