Donald Trump and his allies are missing the point. Yes, of course liberal media outlets in the US are biased towards Kamala Harris. They’re always biased towards the Democrats’ candidate. Nothing new there.
What makes their behaviour right now so remarkable is not that they’re being partisan. It’s that they’re willing to be partisan even though the object of their adulation has been giving them absolutely nothing in return. They’re cheerleading for someone who won’t even speak to them.
It’s now over a month since Joe Biden announced that he was making way. Yet, at the time of writing, Ms Harris has still to hold a single press conference. She has also still to do a single formal interview. Journalists are long used to politicians dodging their questions. But at least they normally get to ask them.
If a Republican candidate followed such an approach, these liberal media outlets would – quite rightly – be scandalised. They would bellow: “Why are the GOP evading press scrutiny in this shameless manner? Do they think their candidate is too gormless and inept to cope with a simple interview? Are they tacitly admitting that their candidate’s record is so poor, they’re incapable of defending it? Or are they just arrogant? Do they think they’re above answering questions about their policies – if, indeed, they have any policies?”

We wonder how the democrats send out a candidate who has nothing to vote for and democrats vote for them anyway. Remember the guy who hid in his basement and almost never came out but he won anyway? How does that happen?
a watchdog press is necessary for a free society
our watchdog press has abdicated their position as a free press
they are lapdogs for the democrats
and attack dogs for the republicans

was in 30s 40s?
I was democrat for many years - and the funny thing is democrats have almost zero respect for the press. It's like the A students in a college usually have less respect for their professors than the C students.
Why?
Because the professors play to them - they want the smart students and the smart students are often smarter than these needy teachers. Especially now when many of today's 'professors' would have been working in a five and dime selling shoes decades ago.. It's the same with the press. Gone are the giants and the respect they commanded and in are the toadies who kiss democrat butt and sell out even before being asked.
There are no more liberal media outlets. Only Marxist media outlets.
They would have to have a sense of shame in the first place in order to feel embarrassed.
First thing I thought of too….
She may talk like an idiot, and cackle like an idiot, but she really is an idiot.
The media has Stockhom Syndrome.
Polls must be showing that her little game is starting to backfire.
