WCU political expert explains Rep. Edwards' censure, breaks down overwhelming vote

The House censured Chuck Edwards after an Ethics Committee investigation found inappropriate conduct toward two staffers. Edwards apologized but disputed the findings. The sides take broadly similar approaches, pairing the censure and committee findings with Edwards’s response. Left-leaning outlets emphasize the findings and his rejection, with one using especially pointed language about his conduct. Center outlets report the findings alongside his apology and denial, while one centers his apology. Right-leaning outlets likewise pair the findings with his response, though some headlines use sharper critical wording.
