The White House has been "extremely upset" about the New York Times’ coverage of President Biden’s age, according to the paper’s publisher, A.G. Sulzberger.
During a Monday interview with The Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, Sulzberger said The Times and other media outlets run the risk of leaning towards two different extremes of coverage when it comes to the 2024 election.
"We are going to continue to report fully and fairly, not just on Donald Trump but also on President Joe Biden," Sulzberger said. "He is a historically unpopular incumbent and the oldest man to ever hold this office. We’ve reported on both of those realities extensively, and the White House has been extremely upset about it."
Sulzberger stressed that is not to say concerns about Biden’s age are the same or "even" when compared to Trump’s legal troubles.
