Why is the focus on "trying to disprove" the election is rigged? Just because Trump says it, that means it's not true? Or what's the logic behind this trend? The media's job should be to focus on proving whether the elections can be rigged or not - especially if there is suspicion that they could be rigged. It shouldn't be to try to disprove it by default. The angle they choose matters a lot.
If anything, calls for in-depth election process audits should've come at least a decade ago. The U.S. isn't doing so hot in terms of election integrity (and no, Russians have nothing to do with it, either):
