MSNBC, like CBS' This Morning and NBC's Today, did not mention disgraced former Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D., Ill.) is a Democrat while discussing his sentencing Wednesday for pleading guilty to stealing $750,000 from his campaign fund.
During the segment on Andrea Mitchell Reports, he was referred to as a "former congressman."
Jackson Jr. received a 30-month sentence, plus three years of supervised release. His wife Sandra, a former Chicago alderman, recevied 12 months in federal prison on a related charge.
