What's missing from this headline about man charged with threatening to kill a US senator?

A New Hampshire man has been charged with threatening the life of a U.S. senator.

Which senator, and what is his or her party affiliation? NBC News didn’t think that information was the highest of priorities:

A New Hampshire man has been charged with threatening to kill a senator. https://t.co/xFTem6s1qt

The headline and sub-head both say a man was charged with “threatening to kill a senator.” And you know what that means:

Since left-wing NBC News declines to make a big deal out of which political party the senator belongs to, I’ll guess it’s a Republican senator. https://t.co/SRfBwPM0Y2

The sad state of “journalism” these days means you can tell which party the politician’s from based on what is or isn’t included in the headline.

Which party does that senator belong to?

Gee–a nameless, partyless, senator.
Wonder what party the senator might belong to? 🤔 https://t.co/eOeFpdE4qD

It’s a total mystery!

NBC News did eventually report that the senator is a Republican, Tommy Tuberville:

If the senator in question was a Democrat you know that fact would have been deemed necessary to be in the headline.

Threatening to kill a REPUBLICAN senator. Why omit this from your headline?? https://t.co/14zGrxkEOZ

You’re missing “Republican” from the headline.

The mainstream media are nothing if not completely predictable.
