Abstract
Midterm elections have become increasingly important in the US election cycle not only because of the number of legislators and governors that are being selected for office but also because these elections serve as a litmus test for the parties and the sitting president. The 2014 midterms were no exception; they provided a wake-up call for the Democratic Party and multiple opportunities for both new and seasoned politicians to present themselves to the public. A major player in this political arena was, of course, the news media, which in any democracy is expected to inform the public of the political issues of the day and also hold politicians accountable.
