Media outlets across the political spectrum are providing uniformly negative coverage of Swalwell’s resignation and the suspension of his gubernatorial campaign. While center-left sources like The Daily Beast focus on the procedural pressure from the House Ethics Committee, right-leaning outlets such as Fox News and The American Spectator emphasize the "ignominy" of the scandal and the increasing number of accusers.
