Maddow breaks down front pages from ‘coast to coast’ to show the developing impeachment narrative

The host of "The Rachel Maddow Show" on MSNBC examined how the impeachment hearings were being covered across the country on Friday.

"Expert: Ukraine meddling lie" was the front-page headline in the Arkansas Democrat Gazette.

The Tampa Bay Times ran with, "Hill: Discord serves Putin."

In Maine, the Portland Press Herald headline was, "Witness: 'Fictions' about Ukraine help Russia."

"Election-tampering theory called a fiction," was the headline in the San Antonio Express-News.

Maddow highlighted the Russia angle, a storyline that was developed further on Friday with a bombshell New York Times report.

Maddow noted that a journalist from one of The Times' competitors called the story "eye-popping."
