As we were noting last week, US Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi handled questions from CNN's Wolf Blitzer by insulting him for even asking questions. Those not as ignorant as Nancy are aware that the press is supposed to ask questions and that it is especially supposed to ask hard questions of those in power.
Former Vice President and alleged rapist Joe Biden is copying Nancy.
Joe exploded at CBS NEWS' Bo Erikson when he asked Joe about last week's NEW YORK POST report about Hunter Biden. Erikson Tweeted:
Joe won't answer questions -- and this is while he wants your vote. Should he be elected, imagine how much worse it will be. He's a mirror image of Donald Trump and this is becoming the Democratic Party's playbook for handling questions they don't like.
The press better start curbing these politicians or expect to be attacked daily by them.
Instead of researching the charges in THE POST's report, THE NEW YORK TIMES elected to write an unsourced piece investigating the newsroom of THE POST. They did this mere days after THE POST published their report.
Grasp that.
Nothing written about the charges in THE POST report -- Hunter traded on Daddy's name and access to Daddy when dealing with foreigners who were paying him -- but they did take time to 'investigate' their competitor.
Note that they also refuse to call out US House Rep. Adam Schiff who has lied repeatedly that the intelligence community thinks the report is a Russian disinformation scheme -- even after Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe says there's no evidence of it being a disinformation campaign, the intelligence community doesn't believe that it is and he also says that Adam hasn't been briefed otherwise.
And they call it journalism -- and then wonder why so many Americans laugh at them and don't respect them. They don't seem to grasp, do they, that after their whoring brought about the Iraq War, the American people really are not that impressed with them.
