Correct. Since their most recent hatchet job on DeSantis, why would anyone not braindead enough to have voted for BeijingBinden even watch that horror?
When 60 min first came out (Yes, I am that old) I watched the first year with fascination. Then, after they assumed that they had secured an audience, the lies started. It wasn’t too far into the 2nd season that I noticed that whenever a technical subject came up (e.g., environment, nuclear power, military, medicine, etc.), a subject they couldn’t simply spin (e.g., the war on drugs is good, etc) they started outright lying. I checked at the library on articles from mags and scientific journals (yes, I’m that much of a nerd) and the closest they came to telling the truth was simply not mentioned anything “from the other side”. In most cases, they just misrepresented everything. I quit watching, and have never gone back. It’s sorta like “Trick me once, shame on you, trick me twice, shame on me.”

Yep. It was easy for me to spot biased reporting when they, well, only presented one side and made a haphazard attempt to present the other side.

I caught Penn and Teller doing that once with their Bullshit show. They had a single “nutjob” defending one side of an issue, and a team of “experts” defending the other.
