Former New York Times executive editor Jill Abramson blasted journalists in Washington, D.C. for failing to “hold power accountable” — and participating in a “massive cover-up” with the White House to shield President Biden’s “decline.”
“It is our duty to poke through White House smoke screens and find out the truth,” Abramson told Semafor.
“The Biden White House clearly succeeded in a massive cover-up of the degree of the President’s feebleness and his serious physical decline, which may be simply the result of old age.
“Shame on the White House press corps for not to have [sic] pierced the veil of secrecy surrounding the President,” she continued, while conceding that it would be “a super hard story” to land with solid Democratic sourcing.
Still, the ex-Times editor, who worked at the left-leaning publication from 2011-2014, said she believes “if enough reporters had pushed, the story was reportable.”
Abramson added that she worries too many journalists “didn’t try to get the story” out of fear of being “accused of helping elect Donald Trump.”

Simply astounding it took them this long to figure it out
In other words “we got caught”.
She’s a professional CYA artist.
They knew long ago.
What’s “simply astounding” is the gaslighting.
Journalist = democrat.
The media is bought a d paid for.
What a lying crap weasel, Jill Abramson knew firsthand Pedo Joe was a demented vegetable. This is nothing but an evasion of responsibility for a failed con job. I’m absolutely certain that all of Washington DC knew, it’s Americans versus the capital tribe.
Oh, give me a break! The MSM WILLINGLY lied to protect Biden for years!
At this point, the fact that the United States of America is being run by a dementia patient is a ‘criminal matter’.
Heads will need to roll, people will need to be charged with subverting the constitution and hoodwinking the American people. This doesn’t end well for Democrats. They may never recover from this debacle.
First things first... Biden needs to resign immediately. Period!
Whores rushing to get re-virginized.
“It is our duty to poke through White House smoke screens and find out the truth,” Abramson told Semafor.
Doing so might tend to hurt the president politically. Jill, sweetheart, can you provide an example of when YOU did so during your tenure on the job? Yeah, I didn’t think so.
“It is our duty to poke through White House smoke screens and find out the truth,”
With all the “sudden realization” going on in the MSM, it’s just becoming more obvious that they will do anything to save the Dim Party’s hold on power. Dumping SloJo is how they decided to do that.
And she sounds like her mouth is full of marbles.
The reporters did not need any sources to get this story— except their own eyes.
They were amazing reporters/columnists with rock solid sources.
Best of all they had amazing courage—would take on anyone.
Hilarious. Obviously, Jill and her peers expected some kind of rewards for their loyalty to the regime - and are now starting to understand they will not get them. What were they? Government pensions for loyal reporters? High places in the New Communist Order? Invitations to all the best Satanic/pedophilic soirees in DC?
Inquiring minds want to know. :)
They knew in 2019.
He’s been a walking cadaver for quite a while now. He’s been a senile fool since “he decided to run.” He’s been a lying sack his entire life.
The FR pool started back in February. We were ALL OVER it!
