Bush Wins Mainstream Media Attention, Trump Dominates across all Media Platforms out of GOP Field

CLEVELAND, Ohio: A top media intelligence company, iQ Media, reviewed which presidential candidate is winning in terms of media mentions across television — ABC,  CBS, and NBC.

The data iQ Media reviewed dates from January 1st through July 31st.

According to iQ Media, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is leading the Republican nominees, even beating GOP frontrunner Donald Trump.

However, Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton is on top of all presidential contenders.
