How the sides differ Left sources highlight leaked audio of Paxton on campaign troubles; right sources highlight a lawmaker asking him to investigate a text campaign.

The two outlets cover different stories that both involve Ken Paxton. Rolling Stone describes him as the Republican Senate nominee and reports leaked recordings in which he vents to lobbyists about the Texas GOP and campaign difficulties, including a remark that Abbott is struggling. The Daily Signal describes him as Texas Attorney General and reports that Republican state Rep. Jeff Leach asked him to investigate an organization sending mass texts. The texts reportedly encourage parents and students to get around state laws expanding parental rights in public schools.
