Joe Biden has given fewer interviews than any president in 40 years, and the media doesn’t really care.

Some very few members of the media have whined a bit over Biden’s lack of interviews, but mostly they just don’t care.

Because if they wanted to force the issue and make Biden do more interviews, their boy would be further exposed as a decrepit, senile, dolt.

Anyway, per Just The News:

In the wake of a Politico story about tension between The New York Times and the Biden administration, the newspaper released a statement criticizing Biden for avoiding media interviews.

In a statement published last month, The Times wrote, “For anyone who understands the role of the free press in a democracy, it should be troubling that President Biden has so actively and effectively avoided questions from independent journalists during his term.” The paper added that “Biden has granted far fewer press conferences and sit-down interviews with independent journalists than virtually all of his predecessors.”

According to The Times, their concern is “That systematically avoiding interviews and questions from major news organizations doesn’t just undermine an important norm, it also establishes a dangerous precedent that future presidents can use to avoid scrutiny and accountability. That is why [publisher A.G.] Sulzberger has repeatedly urged the White House to have the president sit down with The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Reuters, CNN and other major independent news organizations that millions of Americans rely on to understand their government.”

The truth is, they don’t really care.

But, it is true that more interviews would prove that Biden in non compos mentis.

Let’s admit it, though, if a Republican had been in this position, the members of the media would be screaming at the top of their lungs. Calling that Republican a tyrant who hates democracy.
