I know the press is desperate to demonstrate they are tough on Biden too. I don't even think that's necessary a bad instinct; media should be tough on a frontrunner. But "why won't Biden answer" is lazy, embarrassing bothsidesism that does a tremendous disservice to the public. https://twitter.com/Susan_Hennessey/status/1314307175771254785
The story of the Supreme Court vacancy and the Republicans' *unprecedented* norm violation is immensely consequential. It will be a defining moment for the Supreme Court for generations. The stakes could not possibly be higher.

But you sure wouldn't know it from the coverage.
And if the press is getting it miserably wrong, congressional Democrats have only themselves to blame. The other party is attempting an 11th hour power grab and ignoring COVID relief over HUGE public opposition and all you've got is some scattered messaging on Roe? Good grief!
