A new analysis by a nonpartisan media research firm shows that just 3 percent of the reports about President Trump that aired on NBC and CBS were deemed positive.
The data comes from an analysis by Media Tenor, an independent media research firm founded in 1993.
The firm's analysts watched 370 news stories about Trump on the “NBC Nightly News,” “CBS Evening News” and Fox News’s “Special Report” between Jan. 20 and Feb. 17. Trump took office the day the analysis began.
Overall the analysis found that on NBC and CBS, 43 percent of stories on Trump were negative, while only 3 percent were positive. Fifty-four percent of reports were considered neutral.
On Fox News's "Special Report", the coverage also skewed negative, albeit to a lesser extent.

That is no surprise.....
Yet, Real America STILL knows the truth.
Who watches CBS and NBC?
You can’t hold an intelligent conversation with anyone who watches those stations...always assuming they would even listen.
People still listen to fake news traitors?
I have no doubts that the Democrats want America and Trump to fail. I base this on their actions.I have no doubts that America will end up with Americans blood being she’d on our own soil. I have never in my 77 years seen such Evil.
We watch the local Fox station for weather and other local news which is usually good and not political in the morning.
This morning, we turned off the tv due to them using National and local libs to dis Trump’s great speech last night.
Not buying it. The 3% are probably neutral at best. Or maybe they mix a few positive points into an otherwise negative story and get credit for it. But three-percent straight up positive?
Not likely.
Much higher than expected.
People 70 years old and older who still cling to the idea that the Big Three networks are just giving them the straight news and couldn't possibly be anything less than accurate and honest.
Tom Brokaw filled his mouth up again with marbles and cunningly pointed out that it is not only illegals committing crimes.
Well, Tom, that certainly is true, but does that fact impel us to import the murderers and assorted criminals from other countries just because we already have home-grown thugs?
Hey, not all 70 and older are that stupid. :)
I am surprised it is that high. And if you watch local media, it is probably worse.
Ed
3%. That still sounds way to high.
There have been ZERO positive reports on ANYTHING Trump related in our local TV station. Not a single one. And on their website it is affiliated with AP and CNN.
Take that and smoke it Bernie Goldberg.
Sounds high by about 3% from what I’ve seen.
To all the left wing self-absorbs on this thread, and especially the author of this fake news piece, Joe Concha, here is a link of the CBS’s take which says the response was very, very positive. The left is a lost cause when it comes to reality, maturity and truth.
I stopped watching mainstream media news shows a year ago when I realized they were never, ever, ever going to give Trump a break. It makes me sad but it is what it is, and I don’t need their non-stop hatred being spewed over the TV screen.
