 Ex-CNN pundit apologizes for ignoring Biden’s mental decline: 'I should've pushed harder'
Story by Joseph Wulfsohn • 10h

A former CNN pundit has offered a mea culpa for shrugging off concerns about President Biden's mental decline.

Chris Cilizza, who served as CNN's editor-at-large before leaving the network in 2022, spoke candidly about his lack of journalistic curiosity about Biden's condition to serve following a pair of damning reports this week from The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal that shed light on the president's diminished state.
 
"As a reporter, I have a confession to make," Cillizza began his "apology" on his YouTube channel Thursday. "I should have pushed harder earlier for more information about Joe Biden's mental and physical well-being and any signs of decline."

I'd like to know if the Communist News Network paid him to specifically "ignore" Biden's mental decline.  In other words, were they trying to influence the election? :pondering:

Pushed harder? This clown made no effort whatsoever to report on Joe's condition. You have to start "pushing" before you can do it harder.

"And so I think it's a lesson that we have to learn going forward. Because again, Donald Trump will be the oldest person ever to hold office if he serves for four years, and I will be mindful of that. Because again, asking those questions isn't a partisan thing. Asking those questions is a journalism thing, and I should have pushed harder and not been as willing to accept the 'Nah, he's fine. Look at him when he's in public' campaign," Cillizza added.

Snort!

Joseph Wulfsohn...

Chris Cilizza, who served as CNN's editor-at-large before leaving the network in 2022, spoke candidly about his lack of journalistic curiosity about Biden's condition to serve following a pair of damning reports this week from The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal that shed light on the president's diminished state.

Ha!  It is lack of journalistic integrity.  PERIOD!  You have to be brain dead not to know Biden was senile in 2020 and had no business even running for the office.  If the mainstream news media was doing their job, he would never have made it through Iowa, or perhaps even run.  But their lack of journalistic integrity, complete lack, resulted in a man who should have ended his political career years prior. 

When the stupid fool [Biden] made it clear that he was coercing the leader of Ukraine to end the investigation into Burisma, it was clear to anyone that something was gravely wrong with Biden that he was engaged in something illegal.  But not one journalist searched for the answers.  And when Trump tried to get answers, the stinking Democommies impeached him.

It has long been clear to me that the Democommies have NOT been interested in serving this country with honor to protect a worm like Biden, and the mainstream media is worse, for it is  their charter to have the integrity to report the truth, and they haven't reported truth in decades.  They are a bigger joke than the media in Russia, which is controlled by an actual dictator.

So, I'm not a paranoid right-wing nutjob?  The Press really is biased and untrustworthy.
