How often does television news cover tweets that Twitter flags as a violation of its rules? Coverage of such tweets typically takes the form of a screen capture of the violating tweet, complete with the appended Twitter warning message, such as this example from MSNBC at 4:37 PDT on August 24, 2020. We can find many of these examples simply by keyword searching the onscreen text for the phrase "violated the Twitter rules", yielding the following timeline. Note that this captures only instances where a screen capture of the violating tweet, with warning message intact, is displayed on screen and there may be variations in how each channel covers such tweets.
