The Tyndall Report is a journalism newsletter which has been tracking and analyzing nightly newscasts since 1987.[1] It is run and published by Andrew Tyndall, who is also the head of the New York-based company ADT Research.[2][3] The website's stated goal is to analyze and contextualize all major network weekday evening newscasts on ABC (ABC World News), CBS (CBS Evening News), and NBC (NBC Nightly News).[4][5] Tyndall Reports analyzing the amount of coverage given to certain people and issues have been cited in several media outlets during U.S. presidential election cycles.[6][7] For instance, a 2015 Tyndall Report found that Donald Trump was by far the most-covered candidate in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, receiving over a quarter of all election coverage on ABC, NBC, and CBS. The report was cited by CNN Money and U.S. News & World Report.[8][9]
