Billboard reported that the country trio The Chicks responded to the midterm election results during a Tuesday night (Nov. 3) show in Los Angeles. According to the summary of the report, the group "could not have been more excited" to see Republicans suffer massive losses that evening.
Billboard's headline described the outcome as a Democratic midterm election victory and said the band delivered a two-word message to President Donald Trump. The summary available for this report does not reproduce that message, and it does not provide further details of the performance or of the vote totals behind the result.
ABC News reported that Iranians celebrated a setback for Trump in the U.S. election. According to the summary of that report, Iran's leaders said the president should not ignore the "stinging setback" in the vote. The summary does not identify those leaders by name or describe the celebrations beyond the headline.
The ABC News item is a wire story listed under a headline that also covers "other Mideast news," and its listing does not name an author. Billboard credits its report to Gil Kaufman.
Billboard and ABC News cover separate reactions, one from a concert stage in Los Angeles and one from Iran, and neither report contradicts the other. Both accounts are brief, and this story relies only on their headlines and summaries, so it reports no further detail on either event.
