Networks Won't Call Convicted Mayor Ray Nagin a Democrat

John Hames shared with you:   Networks Won't Call Convicted Mayor Ray Nagin a Democrat News Busters - None of the network evening newscasts identified New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin as a Democrat when reporting on his conviction of 20 counts of corruption on Wednesday. The ABC World News called him "the face and voice of a city in ruins" post-Katrina, and joined CBS in simply labeling him the "former mayor" of New Orleans without the Democratic label. As NewsBusters reported last year, all the same evening newscasts dropped the Democratic label at Nagin's indictment. Available on the App Store.
