White House holds secret meetings with news organizations and Washington Post columnist goes on CNN to claim that president is being treated WORSE than Trump by press
The Washington Post on December 3 published an op ed by columnist Dana Milbank entitled: ‘The media treats Biden as badly as — or worse than — Trump’
The column sparked questions about media coverage of Biden, and on Monday Milbank appeared on CNN to argue that Biden was being treated unfairly
On Tuesday evening it emerged that the White House had dispatched a team of three people to speak to newsrooms and encourage more favorable coverage
The three – NEC Deputy Directors David Kamin and Bharat Ramamurti, along with Ports Envoy John Porcari – have embarked on a PR campaign, CNN reported
Some on social media agreed that coverage of Biden was unfair and the news organizations were just hunting for sensationalism, but others laughed it off
