Media coverage of the massive $1.7-trillion government spending bill passed through Congress this week has almost entirely avoided mention of the nation's more than $31-trillion national debt.
MSNBC and CNN have largely sidestepped the issue while discussing the package, which passed with bipartisan support in the Senate, as 18 Senate Republicans joined the chamber's Democrats. Just nine House Republicans voted for it as well on Friday, and President Biden will sign it in the coming days.
