Former Vice President Joe Biden's presidential campaign called on news executives to stop booking Donald Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani as a guest on news programs.
Two top Biden campaign advisers in a letter addressed the leaders of news and cable networks and some anchors, saying that Giuliani's appearance on news networks is giving the lawyer and his "false, debunked conspiracy theories" undeserved credibility, The Daily Beast first reported. The letter has since been shared on social media.
“While you often fact check his statements in real time during your discussions, that is no longer enough," the letter says. "By giving him your air time, you are allowing him to introduce increasingly unhinged, unfounded and desperate lies into the national conversation.”
The Biden advisers Anita Dunn and Kate Bedingfield argue that Giuliani is not a public official that would "entitle him to pine on the nation's airwaves."
"While you have been aggressive in pushing back on him in real time, it is well known that the dedicated liar always has the advantage, pushing out outlandish falsehoods and disinformation in the knowledge that it is hard for the corrections to catch up,” the letter reads, according to the Daily Beast.

Between Pelosi explaining she “hadn’t changed her mind” to Schiff doing everything from setting up an 800 line to tips on President Trump to the Biden campaign “demanding” things of broadcasters, these democrats are so sh!t scared they’re running into each other.
Holy crap is this great!!
A remarkably stupid move.
Does Biden support the US having a free press?
If this meets anyone’s approval we’re further gone than I thought.
“”news networks is giving the lawyer and his “false, debunked conspiracy theories” undeserved credibility,””
WOW - they have a lot of nerve. Did the entire LSM get the same directive about their reporting on the president? They have millions of people in the country believing the nonsense they spout about the president. They need to knock it off!
It’s true too.
The blind leading the deaf.
Out of earshot is out of mind.
