On Tuesday night, both the CBS and NBC evening newscasts did their best to play up Texas Governor Rick Perry’s appearance at an Austin courthouse for his indictment on two felony corruption charges. The Texas Republican was indicted following his decision to veto funding for the state’s public integrity unit amidst the county’s attorney, Rosemary Lehmberg, refusing to resign following a DWI arrest and eventual jail sentence.
