As both a media critic and a follower of all things political, it has been both fascinating and maddening at the same time to compare the media's coverage of NY Gov.

Instead of covering valuable information about the Wuhan coronavirus, the MSM has a nasty habit of concentrating on President Donald Trump.

The New York Times is in "drag Joe Biden across the finish line" mode. There is no better example of that than its coverage of Tara Reade's sexual assault allegations against her former boss, who was a Senator at the time of the alleged assault.
