Even the News Side of The Wall Street Journal Embraces Partisanship

The Wall Street Journal claims to have bright line separation between its partisan editorial side and its straight shooting news operation.  Don't buy it!

In a biased hit job, the Journal wants every voter to believe its conclusion that President Biden's mental acuity has declined significantly.  See Journal Hit Job Sinclair and Fox have repackaged the fake news account into a fake broadcast news account of its own. See, e.g.,  Hit Piece Repackaged

I have relied on the Journal to provide fair and unbiased journalism separate from its partisan editorials.  The Biden piece does not pass muster on fairness, because the reporters failed to include comments from Democrat interviewees that dispute the basic premise of the piece. See, e.g., So Much for Unbiased Reporting

Apparently, it's quite okay for robust, newly remarried, 93 year old Rupert Murdoch to stay involved in Fox management, but a younger Joe Biden is quite demented and unqualified to do anything coherent. So concludes a quite powerful assemblage of media outlets purporting to be fair and balanced.
