Biden gives his SOTU campaign stump speech.
....... the press corps is increasingly pressured by the White House. Biden folk always expect the mainstream press to carry their water; whatever they want said of the president and the administration, they poke the press about what to say and think about and look into.
The press in turn is thinking: Why don’t you make your own points at events, and we’ll report what you did? It is a real Biden weakness—and ultimately self defeating—that Democratic White Houses expect so much from the press, focus on its members so much and rough them up when they don’t come through.

So is there any chance of the press recognizing they are being used?
I am not sure they are that smart.
