Establishment media reporters confessed in a story for the Atlantic published this week that they will not cover Joe Biden’s administration in the same manner as President Trump’s, with CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta floating “hazard pay” for covering the Trump White House during the past four years.

In an Atlantic piece examining the direction the press will go in following the end of Trump’s first term, Acosta — who made a name for himself over the past four years by engaging in highly public spats with the commander-in-chief and asking what Trump once described as “nasty, snarky” questions — admitted that he will not approach a Biden administration with the same fervor.

Partisan shills. Where is Journolist these days? Where do 400 reporters collude secretly on the day’s talking points and who will ask what questions at press conferences?

Woe to a general public who seeks information and education from broadcast media without using discernment.

We already know what they profess, so there is nothing for them to confess. They are free to misinform, and we are free to investigate.

Wonder if they will mind if Biden taps their phones like Obama did, to catch those leakers. For sure they will have the news before Biden, he will constantly be saying, "just found out from your press stories."

What they won't be able to do which was 50% of their task the last four years, is ask R Senators and Congressmen, "what do you think about what Trump said/did/implied?"
