Media Research Center President Brent Bozell is responding to the media’s overwhelmingly negative coverage of President Trump’s first State of the Union address.

According to a CBS/YouGov poll conducted Tuesday evening, three in four Americans approved of the President’s speech.

Despite those numbers, broadcast news networks including ABC, NBC, CNN and MSNBC were widely critical in their coverage following the State of the Union.

In a statement Bozell said:

The media's overwrought, liberal bias was on full display Tuesday night in their reaction to President Trump’s State of the Union address. The President delivered a promising, powerful speech that resonated with most of America. 75% of Americans approved of his address yet ABC, NBC, CNN and MSNBC’s coverage was overwhelming critical. This is more evidence of how out of touch the media have become. These “journalists” live in their own elitist bubble and the public sees right through it.
