But 1. because the country is about 50/50 electorally 2. the elite media is obsessed with proving it is not too left/Democratic-leaning and 3. it is normed around "objectivity," the elite media is "balancing" its coverage of the GOP radicalism with negative Dem coverage. — PolitiTweet.org

That balancing comes through a lot of news (not opinions) stories that are essentially 1. "Biden is screwing up issue X" and 2. "Democrats are too woke" — PolitiTweet.org
