So did they deny Biden made the statements ascribed to him, or did they contend that the statements did not comprise a gaffe?
The first would be a lie. The second would be subjective, although since Biden felt compelled to explain himself, it certainly comes down on the “gaffe” side.
Dog bites man.
I’m not so sure why we are so insistent on referring to it as a gaffe. In a way, that is providing covering fire for him as well. It wasn’t a gaffe. He didn’t misspeak. He revealed his true inner thoughts and feelings about blacks, plain and simple.
'"Who controls the Post controls the future: who controls the present controls the Post,"' repeated Winston obediently.
But for Washington Post fact checker Glenn Kessler, the gaffe never happened.
Had President Trump said anything at all like these two back-to-back Biden statements it would be the leading story on all of the media.
So, will there ever be consequences for the lying reporter?
This whole “fact checker” scam, is just another way for the media to continue to publish their lies, under a new guise of being a media “watchdog” once their mask fell off and the public began to distrust the media on a scale similar to the citezenry’s distrust of politicians. Another layer of obfuscation, so as to posit some new media bias and say, “gee this was “de-bunked” (which is another of their favorite ways to deceive their useful idiots) by such and such “fact checker.”
I can’t count how many times I’ve seen the “de-bunked” term used as a valid debating rebuttal, whereas it is a red flag for what follows to by false. We must cast aside any facts that have been checked by a “fact checker” or has been “de-bunked.”
TRUTH is that the Washington COMPOST tells LIES about as often as they tell the TRUTH. - The COMPOST is nothing more than a house organ of the so-called “Progressive” (Read: FAR LEFT) wing of the DIMocRATS Party
TRUTH is NOT opinion or wishful thinking. It is simply TRUE.

Glenn Kessler pulled out a crystal ball and was able to fine a way to read Biden’s comments that ‘cleaned them up’... made them rational....
He was taken.
Kessler’s crystal ball would NOT work that way if Trump said something even mildly ambiguous...Trump would have been condemned.
