For calling out the corrupt media. They spent every moment for nearly five solid months harping about Joe Biden's age and issues, keeping it at the top of the public's minds (despite Trump being a convicted felon) yet ignore and sane-wash the orange insanity. When we take back the White House, we need to enact a more muscled version of the Fairness Doctrine and start investigating the media under the antitrust laws. Why not sue them for no reason, like Trump gets away with, to get them to accept some code of ethical journalism as a condition of their airwaves license?
