The Joe Biden situation is old news now, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t still plenty left to say. CNN’s Jill Filipovic wrote this:
“At some point I’ll write longer on this, but I think part of the reason the Biden-must-go story has been so huge is that a lot of commentators / voters / even members of the press feel angry and betrayed. Many of us largely trusted Biden’s team when they insisted he was fine. The debate made very clear that he’s not fine. Initially, I think many of us felt some combo of pity for Biden and fear for the future. Now, I think there’s rising resentment at being had.”
Christina Pushaw responded: “The entire country was already well-aware of Biden’s mental decline. You really expect us to believe that the ONLY people who were fooled by Biden’s press team were the journalists whose JOB it is to cover Biden?”
For that matter, Dave Smith added that even if Filipovic’s obviously false statement were true, it amounts to “an unbelievable admission. This CNN columnist was under the impression that Biden was fine (how could anyone have possibly known?) because she ‘trusted’ Biden’s team. That is the role of the media after all, to blindly trust the President’s team.” You and I know that the purpose of the American media is not to inform but to shape how people think.
Anyone that still has any trust in corporate/government media outlets, has the Awareness and Intellect of a Vegetable.
