Oops. Maybe we should have demanded the full report earlier as well as understood who Robert Hur was, i.e., a Republican flak who might have an axe to grind.

From Yahoo https://finance.yahoo.com/news/top-news-outlets-acknowledge-hur-111152686.html:

"In other words, the Hur report offered a misleading view of the president’s mental state. That’s a significant problem for news organizations, given that much of their recent coverage about Biden’s age was derived from that very report where Hur offered a wince-inducing depiction of the president as a “sympathetic, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.”

The acknowledgement from some, but not all, news outlets on Tuesday about the true nature of Biden’s deposition marked another embarrassing moment for the national press, which has floundered at pivotal moments in the lead up to the crucial 2024 presidential election.

ANOTHER embarrassing moment for the national press. They really need to do some deep self-reflection on how they allow Trump and the Republican to abuse them -- as well as destroy the trust of the nation.
