The media seems to think they must be inviolate from criticism from the left, yet bend to criticism from the right as though it is dictum. This is frustrating since it creates at atmosphere of false equivalency and double standards that is harmful to democracy.
For example, the evacuation of Afghanistan continues to be presented as a failure and a betrayal, but what about the Kurds? Much is made of decommissioned planes that could be repaired in Afghanistan & nothing of entire bases left to be occupied by ISIS & Russia in Syria.
That's just one thing. It's not all. Biden's small drop in polling is a "disaster" while Trump never topped 50% & is presented as some media maven.
The media has still to interview those of us who voted for the popular vote winner only to have the losing candidate foisted on us

The media always rush to protect their own, even when one of their own prints off-the-record correspondence or interviews someone's mother under a pretense. They can do no wrong...while they drown democracy in false equivalency.
