CNN, MS NOW do hours of coverage on covering Reflecting Pool drama

Liberal networks are diving head first into wall-to-wall coverage of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool drama over the past several days.

According to a new study from the conservative Media Research Center, the five networks have clocked in nearly seven hours of coverage between June 14 and June 22.

CNN led the pack with a whopping 215 minutes and 37 seconds of coverage, equating to more than three-and-a-half hours of its programming. MS NOW followed with 160 minutes and 51 seconds, which equates to more than two-and-a-half hours of coverage.

Among the three broadcast networks, CBS News led with more than 15 minutes of coverage. ABC News came in second with more than 10.5 minutes of coverage, followed by NBC News with nearly 9.5 minutes.

"While broadcast networks ran a combined 35 minutes and 10 seconds of coverage, that total looks smaller than it actually is," NewsBusters' Bill D'Agostino wrote. "ABC, CBS, and NBC only air two and a half hours’ worth of straight news each day, as compared to the standard 19 hours on CNN and MS NOW. In cable news hours, those 35 minutes are equivalent to 267 minutes and 16 seconds, which is even more coverage than CNN aired."

TRUMP SAYS VANDALS USED CHEMICALS TO DAMAGE NEWLY RENOVATED REFLECTING POOL NEAR LINCOLN MEMORIAL

The Reflecting Pool has become fodder in political circles after an outbreak of algae took over the landmark shortly after restoration efforts from the Trump administration. The renovation cost roughly $15 million.

Some in the media appear gleeful about the algae outbreak as President Donald Trump has been vocally passionate about beautifying Washington, D.C. during his second term, particularly in the run-up to America's 250th birthday celebration next month.
