"Journalists and Democrats need to take into account where we are now if they want to face the challenges of the moment and the future. Those challenges do not — again, they do not — include Joe Biden’s age."

“Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a waste of precious time. What a failure to meet this moment.”

"While it’s useful to have that kind of reckoning [with Biden's legacy], a more important one remains largely missing: the failures of the mainstream press in covering Trump, starting from 2015 and certainly running right through the 2024 campaign with its normalizing and 'sane-washing.'
In fact, it’s still going on."

"As corporate media, and CNN in particular, remains obsessed over Joe Biden’s mental acuity while glossing over Donald Trump’s advanced age, obesity, and repeatedly sleeping during public events, I hope they spend some airtime on MAGA’s utterly cruel and repugnant plans to make cancer and death great again."

President Biden's Stage 4 Cancer diagnosis is headline news, and it should force corporate media to focus on the Trump Administration's aggressive annihilation of our public health care infrastructure
"President Biden’s struggle with cancer will undoubtedly be red meat for the corporate media vultures. It’s up to us remind them, and each other, that the person who’s currently in the Oval Office right now and his right-wing minions are doing everything they can to ensure that the rest of us, who lack Biden’s wealth and stature, will lose the health care we’ll need to keep our loved ones alive."

"The media’s failure to meet the Trump challenge is not just a failure of coverage. It’s a failure of imagination, responsibility, and courage. Trump is not a normal political figure. He is a threat to the very system that enables journalism to function freely."

"And yet 'journalists' such as Jake Tapper of CNN and Alex Thompson of Axios focus on Biden’s cognitive state months after he left office, without a word about Trump’s erratic and unpredictable behavior as well as signs that he is mentally unstable. …
If the media wants to reclaim its role as a bulwark against tyranny, it must first acknowledge its complicity."

"I keep seeing so much attention to that new book on Biden’s age and senility. In what chapter did Biden accept a 400 million dollar gift from a foreign nation? Which chapter details his disregard of a Supreme Court order? Crypto currency scam? Shredding the V.A.?"
~ David Shuster quoted by Stacey Matthews

"The reason we—and by “we” I mean everyone who is not part of the MAGA ummah—have made Biden the scapegoat is because the reality is too dark.
It wasn’t just Joe Biden who failed. It was America. All of it."
~ Jonathan V. Last
And leading the way in that spectacular failure were the very corporate media now enjoying the anti-Biden feeding frenzy, never examining or admitting their failure.

"MAGA is the ventriloquist, some media are the dummies Words come out of Republicans’ mouths and go into news reports unfiltered."

Then I said "Idiot" and hung up.
