Journalists Who Defended President Biden’s Mental Decline Should Be Held Accountable, NY Post Demands
Journalists who helped cover up President Biden’s mental decline should be held responsible for misleading the public, The New York Post demanded in a scathing new editorial. The Post’s editorial board criticized media pundits and commentators who defended Biden’s fitness for office despite evidence to the contrary.
The Post noted that many journalists treated questions about Biden’s health as a right-wing conspiracy, ignoring polls that showed a majority of Americans felt Biden was too old to serve a second term. The editorial cited instances where Biden was seen as looking confused and faltering in his behind-the-scenes demeanor.
The criticism comes at a time when trust in the media is at a historic low, according to Gallup polling. Several liberal journalists recently confessed that their defense of Biden was their biggest regret of 2024, admitting that they didn’t see through the deception earlier.
The New York Post argued that journalists who defended Biden from scrutiny need to be held accountable for their role in perpetuating the scandal. The editorial concluded that “no one who perpetuated, concealed or ignored this grotesque scandal should ever live it down.”
