According to a new study conducted by the Media Research Center, tonight’s debate moderator David Muir has provided 100 percent positive coverage to Vice President Kamala Harris and 93 percent negative coverage to President Donald J. Trump.

Muir hosts ABC’s World News Tonight. All 100 campaign stories aired on the show since Harris jumped into the race have a 100 percent positive spin score.

Meanwhile, there have been just five clearly positive comments for Trump and 66 negative statements, which equates to a 7 percent positive spin score.

Media Research Center said that Harris received 94 percent positive stories on CBS Evening News and 71 percent positive on NBC Nightly News. Trump received 77 percent negative coverage on CBS and 86 percent negative on NBC.

The organization also highlighted the fact that ABC’s World News Tonight never labeled Harris as “liberal,” while CBS and NBC correspondents have confirmed her ideology early in her campaign.
