“In 2006, with Democrats poised to make big gains, the broadcasts eagerly touted their midterm coverage. On the September 20, 2006 'NBC Nightly News,' anchor Brian Williams hyped how his broadcast was beginning 'a special series that will take a close look at some of the most interesting races in these upcoming midterm elections.'
“This election season, 'Nightly News' did not air its first full report on the election until Sunday, October 12. Except for a single full story on October 14 about the Kentucky Senate race (how the Democratic candidate refused to say if she had voted for President Obama), 'NBC Nightly News' has thus far this fall provided no in-depth coverage of any specific races or candidates — merely short mentions of individual contests.”
