I used to chuckle at terms like “fake news” or “east coast media bias” but these past months have opened my eyes wide. The first presidential debate was a mess. Trump interrupting, talking over everyone, having to debate both Biden and Chris Wallace, Biden calling Trump a “clown.” Geez!
The separate town hall debates had George Stephanopoulos chatting with Biden while Savannah Guthrie grilled and attacked Trump. If you ask a question four times will you get a different answer, Savannah? Lesley Stahl of 60 Minutes came loaded for bear, but Trump would have no part of it.
Trump’s “suckers and losers” comment from an anonymous source got play for days on the major networks. But the Hunter Biden laptop and accompanying emails with two separate confirmations by men that have told us their names is never mentioned. (Except on Trump promoting Fox News.)
Did the major news sources in this country want American voters to know if the Hunter Biden laptop really is his? If they did, they could have just asked Joe Biden. Undoubtedly, he knows.
Fox News is biased, but no more so than ABC, NBC and CBS.
