Less than an hour before polls closed in the first three states on Super Tuesday, CBS Evening News anchor Scott Pelley declared that it marked “likely the last chance for challengers to catch the frontrunners, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.”

Pelley continued this on-going media slant toward Trump and Clinton from the very start of the program with two CBS News colleagues at his side: “Norah O'Donnell, John Dickerson, and I are coming to you tonight from CBS News election headquarters at a turning point in this presidential campaign. It is likely the last chance for challengers to catch the frontrunners, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.”
