Of course. And there is a right way to criticize certain coverage but I don’t see the Biden camp doing this. They’re instead just using it as a shield to avoid addressing real concerns that voters have.
I guess the main point of this chain is that Biden name is blasted across all media for mispeaking but trump is not similarly blasted across all media for constantly lying or for other flaws.
Trump is plenty criticized. He’s been pilloried by the media for the past 8 years. I don’t really think this argument makes any sense. I think cognitive bias makes Biden supporters more sensitive to this criticism, just as Trump supporters falsely believe that the media has been unfair to him.
And again, coverage about Biden “misspeaking” catches on because voters have serious concerns about his age. And because he and his advisors have deliberately attempted to hide information relating to these concerns. When the mask slips, as it did in the debate, of course it’s going to make a splash.
Trump was smart to stay out of the way and not do anything dramatic while democrats panic. However, this shooting will likely break the old Biden media cycle, and we’ll see where it goes from here. I think the media will be happy to criticize Trump once things settle and the next topic comes down the pipeline.
I would say I am cognitively biased against trump not towards Biden so what do you have to say to that?
