Poll: has the absence of coverage on CNN / MSNBC / NYT / WaPo of Biden’s sexual allegations changed your perception and of the media. If it hasn’t (without getting nasty), can you explain why it hasn’t? Looking for a structured convo here not bashing with bs links to articles.

They all have covered it. Not particularly extensively but there isn't an absence at all. The fact is everyone who reads any news knows about it.

This.

I like OP: “there has been no coverage. Please have an objective debate as to why”. Several people post links to actual articles. OP: “you’re just posting links and have to search for them! Bah ahaha that’s pathetic”. I like your objective debate, OP.

Google News has been trending a lot with enough coverage by MSM on Biden. I do not think there has been any absence of coverage. What is your complaint?

If Biden had said that she was so ugly to be banged as demented Trump said for his accusers, it would have generated lot more coverage. He instead settled it with a clear and concise written statement and in person on Mika's show.

Sorry, it did not achieve the outcome you expected. Also, can you help us understand why are you trying really hard to fan a dying fire.

I think there might be multiple factors that have created this perception:
1) There is obviously a lot going on right now, so while the media does cover it, maybe it’s not getting the same level of headlines.
2) The sheer number of allegations. Any allegation should be taken seriously and investigated. But if multiple people come forward, that leads to more headlines.
3) If we are comparing to coverage of, say, Trump, there is also the factor of how much it’s discussed amongst readers, and can certainly be influenced by who they support politically.

Well being that we’re in a pandemic that has claimed 70K US lives, I wouldn’t say so much that it’s not been covered as it is much that people don’t care about it given the circumstances we are in. People didn’t care about the countless allegations against Trump and he grabbing women by the crotch and people still voted for him. The answer is that simple.

Sad but true. We have demonstrated countless times through many elected officials (Clinton too) that we as a people don’t think it disqualifies someone from leading the country.

It has absolutely been covered and other Democrats have spoken about it too.

Do you believe Joe Biden is actually capable of leading the country at his age. He BARELY speaks to the media/the public and when he does it’s very pre-set or hand picked. Since 9/1, his campaign has put the lid on him before noon 8 times! 8 out of 22 days...
